Picture early morning walks on the beach and looking out over
gently breaking waves through the morning haze, this is HeartStrings'
Gentle Breezes stole. A Sandrasingh.com Exclusive Pattern
Gentle Breezes is knit in one skein of my Sandrasingh.com Lace.
The ends of the stole are done in a wide lace border
reminiscent of breaking waves. Beads give a glint of sunlight off the waves. The
main lace stitch pattern gives the feel of breezes and the gentle swells of the
ocean.

Fittingly, for the sample shown Heartstings chose a gently
variegated gray/blue/green yarn in a color called Ocean Breeze. But feel free to
choose yarn and bead colors to match the picture story you imagine of gentle
breezes on a morning or evening walk.
