Challenge # 3 Amazing Lace



The Red Shawl

Red linen loops
Formed on smooth pointed sticks
Cheer its creator
Knit a row
Purl a row
Yarn over and knit together
A purposed balancing act of more or less
Makes undulating fabric beneath her fingers
Shoulder decoration.

Excellent poem, Cindy. Much deeper than mine. Maybe I should lay off the martinis. ;-)
