Dew Drops is a delicate lace shawl. It consists of multiple dew drop shapes in a semi-circle. Attaching clear glass beads add to the appearance of water droplets on the shawl that glisten in the light. The shawl is equally gorgeous with contrasting beads or when excluding beads all together. Small size is knit with 1 skein of Apple Tree Knits Mini Lace 100% silk, with size 8/0 glass beads, and has an elastic bind off that accommodates silk and gives a nice scalloped edge. Larger size uses 2 skeins of Queensland Collection Llama Lace Melange, a fingering weight, with size 6/0 glass beads, and has a sweet picot bind off. You will need 888 beads for both sizes. Lace is worked from a chart. Pattern includes instructions for working from a chart and attaching beads.

Errata: Number of beads required is 1212.
