As with the Clock Tam this was based on, I was convinced this would be hideous--until I stretched it out to block. It’s stunning, and I can’t wait to wear it. I have a tam thing going on now…

The Gossamer is lace weight. I held it double, which added to the complex look of the colorwork in which it’s used.

Update: this shrank along with so much of my handmade things after the fire in November 2014.
