Percy

Lace knitting has always fascinated me,

and as soon as I got my hands on the
famous stitch dictionary Ptsilised Koekirjad
I knew I had to make a scarf.
Because the colour and stitches have a
romantic feel to it, the pattern is named
after one of my favourite poets: Percy
Bysshe Shelley.
The scarf is not particularly difficult and
the stitches flow intuitively, but the middle
pattern requires some attention, because
it is patterned on both RS and WS rows.
