Soft, open lace panels sweep like moonbeams along a graceful curve, alternating with bands of reverse stockinette. Cast on with just a few stitches at one corner, the shawl rapidly increases along the top edge to form a modern, wearable wrap that can be styled in dozens of ways. The lace is worked from a single chart that can be repeated as many times as desired, making it easy to customize size; a simple, stretchy bind-off forms soft scallops at the bottom. The lush, romantic drape contrasted with contemporary minimalism is reminiscent of the subtle tension present in Gabriel Faure’s Clair de Lune.
