A Triangular Lace Shawl // Design by Charlotte Lee
Even in the dark, starless night, peace is found in the simple movements of the crochet hook. The pattern is wonderfully easy to memorize, resulting in openwork that eases out like the sun. This piece is dedicated to our loved ones, who might need a little company on those starless nights.
