Tranquil Pond

Dragonflies dance above a quiet pond while a graceful crane stands among the cattails, patiently searching for its next meal. This peaceful picture lace shawl captures the beauty and serenity of a tranquil wetland.

The shawl is worked as individual picture panels. Each panel may be joined as you knit using the included connector sections, or knit separately and sewn together after blocking. The border is worked in four sections and may also be joined during knitting or attached later. For the best stitch definition and to highlight the delicate details of the design, choose a lace-weight yarn with a soft sheen.
