Another Peacock
by Meli Alness
The fingering version of my lace shawl, “Peacock Dance”, can be lightly blocked for a casual, comfy, squishy knit (gray/chartreuse sample & green sample) or enthusiastically blocked to create an elegant filigree (red sample). A great project for new-to-lace-knitters, you’ll love the squishy softness of our hypoallergenic, 100% Tibetan yak down yarn.
