Linen

Flight of Fancy

1

Light as a summer breeze, diaphanous as a bride’s veil, this Flight of Fancy plays with shape and lace stitches for a shawl with movement and grace.

Its trapezoidal form allows for many interpretations. Drape it as a scarf, pin it for a capelet, fold it in half lengthwise and sew along each side to wear it as a shrug.

Or simply throw it over one shoulder for that extra touch of elegance

The sample pictured is knit with Handmaiden Flaxen, 65% silk, 35% linen (250 m./273 yds per 100 g. skein), main colour “Wheat”, edging colour “Natural”.
