Shells & Tide
This is what I've been working on during the month of November - a big shawl in light fingering weight wool. Frankly, the chart is not very easy and intuitive and required attention most of the time, so not the ideal TV knit, but I am very happy with the result. I knit it for a friend and I do hope she will like it. The shawl is intended for the winter, but as it is very light and airy I believe it would be fitting for the summer evenings too. Actually, I liked the result so much that I'm thinking of knitting a similar one for myself, when I have the time.
Pattern: Shells & Tide by Veronika Jobe
Yarn: Alize Cashmira Fine 100% wool, 200 g
Needle: 3.5 mm (US 4)
Time to knit: one month
This is a pretty red with a slight tinge of orange. How patient you are. When I read, "Frankly, the chart is not very easy and intuitive," in my head it said, she's a pro and can handle that.
ReplyDeletePerfection! I especially love its generous size!
