I think it’s always interesting to see a lace pattern worked in different yarn weights and fibers. This design is offered in two variations: the first in a luxury merino/silk blend in a heavy-lace weight yarn; and the second in a cobweb lace yarn traditionally used in Haapsalu (Estonian) shawls. Double your fun and try working both!
