from Ravelry:

 I found this yarn on a trip to Paris, just as summer was beginning.
The city felt light and romantic. Women walked by in flowing, delicate layers that struck me as effortlessly feminine.
The color I chose seemed to ask for something equally soft and graceful.
So I designed Orquidée: a flattering V-neck silhouette, with simple lace bands that gently decorate the front, back, and sleeves.
It’s a piece that feels like a quiet celebration of womanhood.

Orquidée is worked seamlessly from the top-down.
