Originally designed as a wedding gift for two dear friends and inspired by their love of sailing, Zephyr’s dynamic lines and graphic motifs lend a contemporary feel to a traditional eight-wedge doily. A knitted-on edging further updates the piece, eliminating any need for a crocheted bind-off or sewn border, as well as providing enough stretch for the doily to block out to its full potential. Directions are both written and charted.
