We were delighted by this traditional Estonian stitch. Not lace, but so lace-like! Not cabled, but twisted by ‘spinning’ a cluster of stitches 180 degrees. Knit in a lace-weight mohair, the blocked fabric is gossamer fine between the twists. And the surface has such a lovely undulating texture and motion. Twists along the edges create deep, three-dimensional scallops. We’ve sampled in spring-inspired colors - but love the darker shades for a dressy evening accessory. Forty colors of Rowan’s Kidsilk Haze to choose from!
