Tuesday Trendwatch: Lacy Knits

Another incredible trend I have noticed this spring, along with crochet, are lacy little knits. These open work knits offer a variation on crochet treads and are just right for warm spring days and hot summer night.

Hollister's spring line features this cute little sweater and this fun vest. Either of these would look great over a little tank or a swim suit at the beach.



Urban Outfitters' line includes this cute cardigan that I think would look great with a pair of skinny jeans and heels.


Forever 21 also features a line of lacy knit sweaters including this cute little number, this adorable tank top, and this hot black beret.

I love all of these for summer with a short skirt, skinny jeans, and strappy sandals.

A note on finding these trends: Many of these sweaters and accessories are tagged as crochet while closer inspection reveals them to be knit. Knit and crochet really are not the same thing though they can sometimes produce similar looks. When searching for these trends, I found that searching the word crochet got me better results.
