A silk shawl in a simple lace pattern which starts with a regular double eyelet created by yarn overs and knitting stitches together, this then blends into a lace panel. Whilst it helps to have some lace experience, it is also a good project for someone new to lace work. The sample is made using Louisa Harding Mulberry which is a double knit yarn and 100% silk (approx. 370m needed). A yarn with no silk may not produce the same drape. The colour is Sweet Dreams (shade 29). The shawl is a traditional triangle starting from the back of the neck working downwards. Increases are on every alternate row and are by yarn overs. The pattern has written instructions and is also charted. Please note that the price of this pattern will increase to $5 on 1st September, to be consistent with prices on other websites.

Like many I took a couple of decades off my knitting and crochet whilst my working life took over, but now I am catching up. I always have a hook or pair of needles close by; my fingers do not like to rest. After reacquainting myself with my old hobbies, I progresed to creating my own designs. It seemed a natural progression for me, as did running crochet workshops in the NW of England.
Those who have tried my designs will know that I love creating simple designs that look very effective, after all life doesn't need to be complicated! And I understand that many people like a bit of television or music knitting/crochet, so the easier they are the better it is to enjoy the world around you whilst enjoying your craft.
