A face warmer designed to work well with glasses. Short row shaping helps the warmer come up and over the nose, while three repeats of the Old Shale lace pattern provide holes to breath through rather than breath escaping alongside the nose and fogging glasses on cold days.

Pattern includes written instructions and a diagram of the short rows.

Make sure yarn is thick enough to give the ribbing some elasticity.
