What could be a more perfect way to unveil our new Petite Bouclee than with the exquisite Folies Bergère Shawl by Louise Robert?

Folies Bergère is a famous music hall in Paris, France, known for its extravagant performances and vibrant atmosphere. Established in the 19th century, it became synonymous with entertainment that was both light-hearted and

sophisticated.

The venue is celebrated for its lavish shows featuring music, dance, and theatrical performances, often including elaborate costumes and stunning visual displays. Folies Bergère evokes a sense of elegance and feminine artistic flair emanating from the model. -Louise Robert ♡

NOTE

This shawl features a central section shaped like a downward-pointing quadrant (see the green area in the diagram), where 8 stitches are added every six rows. Additionally, on either side of the quadrant, there are extra increases (shown by the pink triangles) and a series of short rows (indicated by the blue triangles) to widen the piece. The increases are depicted by the white dashed line.

The traditional, feminine silhouette of the shawl is updated with a lace band located in the center instead of at the edge and is further enhanced by varying yarns, textures, and colors.
