Katrina King designed this lovely lace shawl from one skein of 100% silk Kiku, lace-weight, dyed color #303 Beehive Gold. 

The pattern was published in Piecework September/October 2017 issue, p27-30.  Katrina's finished shawl weighs 62g. 

Katrina designed a chrysanthemum flower motif, which she knitted with Kiku yarn, and “Kiku” means chrysanthemum in Japanese.  A perfect union of design and yarn!  The color Katrina selected looks like golden-bronze chrysanthemums that bloom every fall.  

The silk is from the Bombyx mori silk worm, often referred to as "mulberry" silk.

You can purchase the Kiku yarn in color #303 Beehive Gold with or without the Piecework issue (see dropdown box).
