This airy semicircle in two sizes (petite/tall), is begun on a provisional cast on and worked from center back neck to hem in a series of patterns that progresses from solid to more open and lacy. Trellis, vine, and leaf motifs tell the story of the vineyard as harvest time nears, forming a fabric that invites the autumn light to filter through. Complex to the eye, the lace is actually quite simple and entertaining to work. The final result is a stunning composition that offers a warm and beautiful layer on cool fall days.

Substituting yarn and/or needles may result in an overall variation in size and drape.

this pattern may also be purchased as part of the Fall in Full Color 2013 eBook collection, which includes all 17 patterns from the FIFC 2013 club
