Who Let the Moths Out?

Who Let the Moths Out?

Lace knitting is delicate and complicated. Glass doesn’t like to be “delicate and complicated”, and sometimes refuses to comply. That’s what happened here. But the eaten out center reminded me of how moths interact with fiber … and an amusing title came to mind.

This piece uses a stitch pattern called the “Feather and Fan Stitch”.
