Inspiration from the Aegean Sea depths, in organic seaweed shapes fanning out from a center spine of embellished dropped stitches. Triton is constructed in two identical halves, using 3 skeins each for the Wide version, 2 skeins each for the Narrow, beginning from a center Trident Stitch lace column, with side columns added by casting on additional stitches.
