Muy Zen

I designed this scarf for my friend’s birthday present. It has 39 stitches across the body.
The aqua color is a beaded silk and the darker blue is cashmere.
I hadn’t planned to use these two yarns together, and I still can’t decide if I love the color combination.
I do love the crocheted lace, though. This scarf seemed to want to be a beautiful Japanese fish, so I went with it. Can you see that the crocheted piece looks like the head of a fish?
I also love the Lotus Pattern, taken from Barbara Walker’s Treasury. There are 39 “fringes”.
The models are special young ladies with generous spirits.(I bribed them with Mediterranean food.)
