Meet Daphne

As promised, I would like to introduce Daphne, the dress form, studio chum of Madeleine, the mannequin. Daphne is an antique with less charm and more "old", as in water-stained and ripped, so I have had to cover her neck with a scarf . BUT, I love having a full length model for shawls. Dressing her up is like having my own person-type doll. Today she is introducing the Clapotis shawl done with a diagonal drop stitch pattern that I LOVE to knit, and the jewel-toned trapezoid shawl knit sideways. This one is knit for my tall friends. Daphne shows it off well.
