Rialto is no longer available as a single pattern. Please consider purchasing the Dreaming of Shetland e-book for this and many other wonderfully designed patterns which were donated to support Deborah Robson’s research into Shetland sheep and wool.

The deep undulating grooves of Ogee lace transform your favorite skein into a decadently squishy scarf or cowl. Choose between two provisional cast-on methods and follow the directions for a scarf or a cowl in two sizes. Finish by grafting the edges in pattern or using the three needle bind-off, then create an i-cord ring for easy styling. Whether you see leaves or flowers in your Ogee lace, you’ll want to make Rialto in a bouquet of colors and sizes for every season.
