Light as a feather and a fan, Peregrine is mild and unassuming yet cloaked in intricate detail begging to take flight. A clever half-drop pattern variation on the traditional old shale motif makes for a delightful overall ogee lace effect that sweeps right up to the edges of the shawl. The resulting natural undulations produce delicate plumes to frame the face and shoulders.
