Ostwald is a study in marls and high-key lace. A white strand ties together four different pastel colors. Both the holes in the lace and the flecks in the marls create visual rhythm.

Even though the fabric is technically worsted weight, it feels lighter because of the lacy stitch pattern and the lofty yarn. It’s also a quick knit because it’s lace.

Ostwald is worked in Tynd from Woolfolk Yarn.

The working yardage is 525 yards.
