This stand-alone, carry around organizer is perfect to store and keep handy all your tools and notions. It’s fully lined in cream denim and has four outside and four inside pockets with an ample center well and an ultra suede handle.
Missed Connections is a smallish elongated triangle knit from tip to edge. This design includes an integral loop and button closure, allowing you to style it as a shawlette or as a cowl … a showl! The striking arrow pattern is achieved using the mosaic technique whereas you’ll work just one strand of yarn per row. Missed Connections also features neat and tidy I-cord edges and two color I-cord bind off.
Due to the large scale of the arrow patterning, the mosaic colorwork is charted only. The pattern includes a video link to guide you with reading mosaic charts and a photo tutorial with step by step instructions to make the I-cord loop closure. Standard and Inverted color charts are included for the main patterning.
For those preferring a large shawl, the pattern also includes instructions to make a LRG full sized shawl version.
The shawl calls for Sportweight yarn. Malabrigo Arroyo, Madelinetosh Woolcycle Sport and Juniper Moon Patagonia are all good choices. If you want the contrast to be a multi-coloured self-striping yarn then I would suggest Spincycle Dyed in the Wool, Schoppel Wolle Starke 6 or Edition 3. Some test knitters used fingering weight. If you go that route please do a tension swatch.
