Korpsång
This pattern is published in 52 Weeks of Shawls by Laine Publishing.
Korpsång is a classic triangular shawl with a twist – easy and intuitive to make but still has that special something. The shawl is worked on the bias, created by making increases on the right-hand side only. It uses a combination of slipped stitches, eyelet pattern and garter stitch. A contrast colour is used to embroider a minimalistic spine pattern. Korpsång is Swedish for “raven’s song”, inspired by the caw of the ravens high above the forest where Lotta H Löthgren lives.
