Woolly Waves

Stephen West has a new shawl pattern. This is always a great day for me because I have lots of pretty pictures for the blog. You can purchase the pattern for the Resplendence Shawl on Ravelry.

This large shawl is knitted with nine colors of fingering weight yarn and one lace weight mohair pop for the little eyelet stripes. The woolly waves are knitted with short rows to form the arched shape. Increases and decreases create undulating waves, resulting in a spectacular radiating effect. This project is so exciting to knit using your single skeins or leftover fingering weight yarns from other projects. The mohair contrast color adds a liquifying drape to the fabric and a subtle halo. Create your own unique color story and enjoy this magnificent Westknits shawl!

You won’t use full skeins for the shawl.

I went down the rabbit hole. I found more Rowan books to put on the sale page. Some of these weren’t on the website to begin with. A few are older and the yarns are discontinued but the patterns are amazing and you will be able to find a substitute.

The sale page is actually up to three sale pages and it could hit four by tomorrow.

Dad, Beth and the dogs are on their way to the cottage. They are probably coming home on Sunday so I’m staying home. I shouldn’t see this out loud but I’m looking forward to a few quiet days by myself.
