If you’re looking for a light garment to work on in the summer months that you can wear all year long then the Gallica Shell might be the pattern for you. Knit in our Valley Yarns 2/14 Alpaca Silk at a relaxed gauge with a delicate lacy insert at the neckline. You can dress this one up or take it casual with ease.

Velvety petals of a rose lace motif adorn the neckline of the Gallica Shell. This sheer, fitted, sleeveless top is worked from the top down – the lacy front yoke first, then the back – the remainder of the lower body is worked in the round and it’s easy to alter to the desired length! Choose from almost 30 colors of the 2/14 Alpaca Silk to suit your wardrobe.

We’d love to see your finished garments! Anytime you’ve made a Valley Yarns pattern be sure to tag it with #VYwearit We may feature you here on the blog, highlight you on our Facebook page, or repost you on Instagram!
