This is a fabulous crochet lace from the sample room of Anna Sui, a bright and summery tie dye in yellow, turquoise and green tones (PANTONE 12-0752, 16-4530, 16-6444). The texture and weave are wonderful, and it has a casual/beachwear look. Just a bit of give in both directions, perfect for a pretty shawl, cardigan, beachwear, tunic, dress (must be lined or layered). If you want to try hand-washing, please test first.
