Georgiana
Headed back to Pemberley where we find both Lizzie and Georgiana at the piano. This stole will keep you knitting with all the glorious motif’s, texture, beads, cables, lace… and I know not what.
“All young ladies are accomplished. They sing, they draw, they dance, speak French and German, cover screens and I know not what.”
Bingley quote, about how talented the modern women are.
If you love texture, you’ll love this shawl. Full of original lace, haystacks, k1tbl on purl base, a small amount of cables that move the stitches with hard lines. Strewn across are beads, a lot of beads. As if that weren’t enough there’s a floral pointy border, built into left and right, picked up on top and bottom. In a word, ethereal. I love this shawl, it’s a work of the heart, I’m sure you’ll feel the same.
