Project info
Nymphalidea by Melinda VerMeer
Knitting
Neck / TorsoShawl / Wrap
Needles & yarn
US 7 - 4.5 mm
Notes

Made as a stall sample.
Used Handspun Alpaca singles in a variegated colour way and then some John Arbon Commercial Alpaca fingering weight for the ribs.

Loved knitting it, but am a bit uncertain about the shaping. It’s ok when you oversize it like this one, but in a smaller size I think it would be a very odd shape to try and wear.

I just keep repeating wedge D and the welt until I ran out of yarn.

More details about how I spun the yarn, and picking the pattern to work with it here-
