Waltzer – a Summer Lace pattern from Heather Dixon
It’s heating up out there, but if you want to look super-hot, how about adorning yourself in some shimmering, gold lace?
The second of my Summer Lace projects is WALTZER, part poncho, part stole, 100% FABULOUS!
Waltzer is an easy rectangle shape with an opening for your head. Looks very dramatic, but if you are familiar with knitting lace, it is a simple and enjoyable piece to knit.
