Notes

I really enjoyed working with the Ruca yarn. It has some weight to it and drapes beautifully, much like other plant fiber based yarns (bamboo, rayon) and silk. The drape worked especially well for this lacy pattern. I don’t think I would have liked it as well in a loftier yarn. This was a stash buster project, knit from two different colors of the same fiber because I didn’t have enough of one color. I’m so glad I didn’t have enough because I love the depth of the two tone finished product.
