Happy summer everyone! June is almost over - I am enjoying the weather and my ever-changing garden. So far it has been very nice here in New England: not too hot, not too rainy and not too buggy. Flowers are blooming and the kids are finally done with the school. Anyway - back to the business of knitting.
This month I used a very traditional pattern: "Silvia". Did you know that there are at least 3 variations of this pattern? I should write a blog post about it at some point. Anyway, enough talking, here is the shawl:
And a close up
I used KnitPicks Bare Shadow Lace Yarn Fiber Content: 100% Merino Wool Weight: Lace Weight Yards: 880 Grams: 100 Needles: US 5 (3.75 mm)
How I did it
Main body of the shawl Cast on 92 sts, work 8 row in garter st, then continue as follows: RS rows: k4, * 21 sts follow scheme below, repeat from * 4 times, k4. WS rows: k4, p to last 4, k4 (pay attention to nupps!)
I worked the scheme 16 times and finished with 8 rows of garter sts. Cast off all sts. Then I picked stitches along all 4 sides at once on a long circular needle, and added scalloped edge. Pattern for scalloped edge (number of sts - multiples of 13):Row 1(RS): *k2tog, k2 tog, k2tog, (k1, yo) x6 times, k1, ssk, ssk, ssk, repeat from * to end.Row 2(WS): Purl allrepeat rows 1 and 2 until desired length is reached. Cast off all sts. Size after blocking: 62 x 21 inches.
Happy Knitting in July! Natalia
