Seaside Serenade by Janine Le Cras

This stole just sings out summer at the seaside to me! The lace pattern on the ends is based on a Barbara Walker stitch pattern and represents parasols on the beach. The main body of the stole is worked in an open lace called Mermaid Mesh. Ah! I can hear the seagulls singing already.
