Raven Blossoms

Written pattern only, no charts.

The beautiful draping of this shawl is a result of the blend of cotton, viscose, and linen in Sandnes Tynn Line. You will find this old Shetland Lace pattern, Rosebud Eyelid, an easy-to-remember 16-row repeat pattern. I included extra rows of garter stitch between the colour changes to ensure that the pretty motifs did not “bleed” into each other. I began and finished with a row of eyelets. Inspiration came from the find of a lovely Wedgwood platter I found in a second-hand shop.
