Vingervinge is a lace stole that is worked as a rectangle with three columns of lace. The first shawl I did with this pattern was in white 2 ply wool, and it looked like frosty birds climbing white ladders. Hence the name Vintervinge which is Swedish for ‘winter wing’.

Tidblad is a long shawl, more or less formed as an astronomical crescent or a very elongated semi-circle. It is made from tip to tip with a lace/cable edging and the body worked with garter stitch. Tidblad is in fact a Swedish surname which literally means ‘time leaf’.
