Instructions

We are holding a knit-along for this shawl on the Craftsy blog: http://blog.craftsy.com/category/knitting/holden-knit-along/

Difficulty:

Category: Knitting

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women


Materials

One hank of Lorna's Laces Solemate in the color "Franklin's Panopticon" and US6 (4mm) Takumi Bamboo circular needles

What was your inspiration?

I was inspired by Mindy's beautiful FO, Lorna's Laces gorgeous yarn, and the launch of Laura Nelkin's new online shawl knitting course: "Knit This! Mastering Lace Shawls."

What are you most proud of?

I'm really proud of the way that the shawl is knitting up. I think that even though a lot of people don't choose variegated yarn for shawl projects, this one will be gorgeous.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

I would suggest that if you have any trouble knitting the shawl, you check our Laura's "Knit This!" class.

She's a great teacher and you'll learn everything that you need to know to knit lace!

I knitted this recently as one of my first lace projects! I absolutely LOVE it and am knitting another. Just enough challenge and great look!
