Notes

I made a Fragile Heart out of the same yarn for a friend and had a terrible time giving it away. So when the chance to purchase additional destash presented itself, I jumped!

I ran out of yarn during the first one and had to BO with a doubled strand of coordinating silk lace. I really should have executed this exactly the same as the silk lace BO as it did lend a nice, unexpected design element. Instead, I made this smaller by stopping at 163 sts instead of 187. The extra length of 187 before the lace sections made the entire shawl feel more substantial and luxurious.

600 #6 Mill Hill Amethyst Ice beads.

Stockinette Section - to 163 sts
LACE SECTION - 2 times
LACE BORDER - 1 time

57 g. left after 2nd Lace Section
20 g. Left after Lace Border
11 g. Left after Picot BO

BO with #4 Stilleto Point Signature Needle. Easier to keep the picots tight. Used Addi Lace Clicks for lace.
