Hello, gorgeous!

Our pattern this week is a dreamy knit wrap with some lovely, lacy panels but without the work of true lace!

rhoswen wrap

Rhoswen is a knit rectangular shawl designed by Jane Vanselous and is made with our dreamy Expression Fiber Arts Alpaca Silk Lace Weight Yarn in 2 colors.

Have a watch! We have filmed a video tutorial for you.

 

The 2 colors are used in a really unique way to make this shawl. For one section, you hold one yarn color single. For the next section, you switch needle sizes and hold 2 strands together. It’s magical!

This shawl drapes and flows, flits and floats! You can adjust the size to make it a scarf or wider wrap if you prefer. And the length is totally up to you!

The designer notes:

My inspiration in designing this shawl, was to create something light and airy, but not too difficult. I chose two lace weight yarns in colors that I thought would work well together and keep the light appearance that I was striving for. The design would work just as well, although with a completely different effect, in 2 dark colored yarns.
