"It started," relates Patterson, "with some green yarn and a cloverleaf insertion. Clover flowers sprung up in the middle of the field of leaves. Then the bees arrived. You can't have a field of clover without bees..." This extraordinary triangular shawl is knit in the most common manner from the top center, increasing out toward the bottom edge. All the lace is charted in ample format; the explanations are clear; and the resulting garment is very, very beautiful.
