Reflections

**The inspiration for this pattern came from my many summer walks in the Lake District, UK with my German Shepherd dog, seeing flowers and reeds reflecting and rippling in the lake waters. **

**Shaping at the waist is achieved by incorporating cabling into the already established wave pattern. Above the bustline, the flower buds allow a little stretch to the fabric. **

The small beads at the waters edge are placed in the work using a technique called hooking a bead, which doesnt require that you pre-string the beads.
