Terra

Another shawl is off the needles and already in use.

From the Rowan Tweed DK I had 3 skeins in red in stash and wanted to knit a shawl for myself since I´ve found these in a yarn shop in Denmark last year. Finally I found the time and the pattern for it!

I´m knitting very loose and so this shawl turned out very large and the fabirc is quite open, but has a great drape. I run out of yarn many rows before the pattern ends and had to bind off with a different yarn, as I´m really too lazy to rip back some rows. So after 3 lace repeats of Lace A all 3 balls of yarn were nearly used up. I´ve added 3 rows of garter and BO in "surprisingly-stetchy-Bind-off" with 2 Ply Jumper Weight from Jamieson & Smith.




Yarn: Rowan Felted Tweed DK in rage (3 skeins)
Needle: 5.5mm circular needle
