Each set contains five 105-yards mini skeins for a total of 525 yds / 480 m of Tough Love Sock (80% Superwash merino, 20% Nylon).
With the sultry gradients from our Party of Five sets, Fan & Feather stitch comes alive in this popular asymmetrical shawl shape. Soft texture, gradual increases, and decadent lace promise an accessory that will delight every knitter.
This shawl is worked sideways from point to edge, increasing gradually on one side. The pattern is written to fully utilize the yardage of the mini-skeins, working each colour until it runs out completely and then joining in the next colour mid-row. You may join the new colour by wet-splice (for a more natural transition) or by double-stranding for a few stitches. You may use any method you prefer to join the new colour. Colours A and E are worked on the Garter stitch rows in the Fan Pattern. Colours B, C, and D are worked on the lace rows in the Fan pattern. The shawl can be worked in one colour by simply disregarding the colour change indications.
The Fan Pattern is both written (see Stitch Instructions) and charted (page 3) for your preference.
You can purchase the pattern on Ravelry.
Mosaic style colourwork can almost feel like cheating, working stripes and slipped stitches with only one colour at a time. That beautiful simplicity paired with two Party of Five sets results in a show-stopping piece that captivates from start to finish.
You can purchase the pattern for Ailey on Ravelry.
