Moon River by Janine LeCras
“Moon River, wider than a mile, I'm crossing you in style some day”
All the time I was knitting this stole that wonderful song from Breakfast at Tiffany's was going round and round my head. The beads are optional, but combined with the stitch pattern they give the impression of moonlight sparkling on water.
