Hi everyone! It’s been a while since my last post, as I’ve been busy with family matters. But clearly, I still haven’t ran out of this Nako Elit Baby yarn, and this is the third design after the Dusky Sky Hat and Powder Stripes Shawl that I made using it. It’s so soft and easy to work with and has a very pretty color scheme that I just love to work with it. Now this shawl, with its classic triangular shape, has a four rows pattern that is repeated three times within the general pattern. It has one specific new trick, which is to make five stitches out of one in a row, then knit them together in the next row. To me, the pattern looks like twigs with little leaves on both sides, or like wheat ears, though you are free to imagine whatever you like. The lacy waves edging rows will give you a very beautiful and cozy shawl that’s perfect for these unusually chilly spring days. Hope you have an enjoyable time making it!
