In the Pink


Here is another shawl/stole I wrote up the pattern for as I went along. Well, almost. I love the way it falls in folds of lace or drapes across to hang over the opposite shoulder. Either way, it just stays put. As for the knitting, I like doing a purl 2 together. I found it odd, in a good way, to do patterning on the purl side rows instead of the knit side on the edging. But then, I am easily entertained!

Here is the second one, in cotton/viscose 4 ply from Colourmart.co.uk. I had loads left on the cone, but the shawl went to live elsewhere within hours of completion & I forgot to weigh it.
