Interweave Crochet recently published it’s 10th anniversary birthday edition, and the issue features the Water Lily Shawl, a gorgeous lace shawl featuring The Fibre Co. Road to China Lace designed by Lisa Naskrent.
From the magazine:
Lisa Naskrent has been engaging crocheters with her delicious shawls since 2008, when she presented her Dragonfly Shawl. Her Water Lily Shawl features exuberant clusters of elongated stitches that bloom into soft fans, held in balance with alternating rows of solid clusters.
