Dark Lotus Shrug
|
|
Worked from the center out, the Dark Lotus Shrug is a delicate cover-up featuring an intricate flower medallion. The body and sleeves are finished with a lace rib. A special bind off on the body makes a delicate ruffle and provides a very stretchy opening. Dark Lotus is worked in a fingering weight yarn; subtle color variations in hand-dyed yarn pair beautifully with the lace patterns. Stitch patterns are charted only.
