This design incorporates a reference to Argyle with the diamond form, framing each of the Gansey patterns giving an elegant shape and abstraction to the whole. With church windows, trees of life and full diamonds signifying commitment in marriage. And of life living with the sea as a heart of community. Interesting needle changes throughout creating flow into the lace sections. Like delicate sails.
“Below the cliff, space, and at the foot,
The knitted waves, they lash the edge of the earth.
I watch and find I ache to feel their texture…”
from ‘the point’, by Brian Johnstone
