4ply version
Lace
This swathe of luxury with a fluid embossed lace stitch pattern gives the wrap movement and style. These shawls are bordered by simple and reassuring rib sections at the beginning and end, which frames the lace motif beautifully.
There are two versions, one worked in 4ply (two colours) and the other in lace. The undulating columns and tear-drop ‘windows’ of this shawl remind me of the stunning delicate design of gothic style windows.
