A couple of nights ago I had a dream where I was knitting and listening to Vivaldi's Lute Concerto in D Major, specifically the Largo. I just love that piece of music. In my dream, the music was a pattern for knitted lace. Somehow the notes were instructions on when to do a knit stitch, when to do a purl, when to increase and decrease. The lace was incredibly beautiful.
This is a video of John Williams playing the whole concerto. The Largo goes from about 3:40 to 7:50 in the video. Can't you just imagine how beautiful a corresponding piece of lace would be?

What a beautiful and perfect comparison! I'd love to see that lace!
That's an amazing dream.
Where is this slovely Moorish room? It almost out beauties the music.
I don't know where that room is. It is gorgeous, isn't it?
I'll do some looking around and see if I can find out.
It's at the Royal Alcazar Palace in Seville, Spain.
