Dragonlfy | Triangle Lace Shawl
Design Information
Like its namesake, the dragonfly, this striking shawl embodies elegance and ethereal flight. It begins with a classic garter stitch section, flowing into a stunning lace panel featuring an easy-to-memorize double eyelet lace stitch. Triangular in shape, with its sleek lines and graceful expansion, reflects the streamlined body of a dragonfly, while the double eyelet stitch mimics the translucent patterns found on its wings. Knit in soft and airy, Piper, the dragonfly shawl is the symbol of lightness, movement and grace.
