Note: Qiviut is the Inupiat word for the down (belly fur) of the musk ox. (The Oomingmak Co-op has trademarked the word qiviut to mean only the down of the musk ox.)

This is a smoke ring worked in lace weight Qiviut (Qiviuk yarn). Qiviuk is the Inuit word for musk ox. The smoke ring follows two beautiful lace patterns. The first one worked at the edge creates wonderful scallops. The rest of the ring is worked in a gorgeous diamond pattern. These two patterns allow the yarn to show its beauty.

This design is part of the Winter 2010 issue of Lace ‘n More magazine.
