Muy Zen

January 10, 2010

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.)
