Silky smooth and mercury quick, this fluid shawl swirls with color.
Quicksilver is worked flat from tip to edge, with garter stitch stripes and a lace mesh that knits up in the blink of an eye.
Wedges of the lace fan between the striped sections, lending the shawl a lovely slanted shape.
It’s a generous rectangular shawl knit from four different colors, using short rows to seamlessly combine textures like stripes and lace into a garment that captures the steep lines and beautiful color play of the Verdon Gorge itself.
For millennia, migratory herds of Merino d’Arles sheep and their humans have roamed the fertile countryside across France, choosing the high meadows of the Alps during the summer and the lush plains of La Crau when winter’s chill hits.La Crau is also knit in fingering weight. You need 3 colours - each under 400 yards.
I’m Melanie, and I combine texture and color into wearable modern designs that are both playful and beautiful. I design to surprise — from matching cheeky stripes with elegant lace, to choosing unexpected color combinations. I love to collaborate with other creative types around the world, and my patterns have been published by yarn companies and knitting magazines large and small.
I live with my husband and three children in Bonn, Germany, where I find inspiration in the landscape, history, and culture.Now there are a few more contenders for the Fuse yarn that should be arriving tomorrow. I've been tracking the boxes and as of right now they should be in the store by 5:30.
Hey, that looks exactly like The Lonely Tree Shawl pattern
Yep, pretty much exactly! The only difference with this one is that it’s got a much more intuitive chart, that can be repeated forever (or until you run out of yarn). This version can be more easily modified to make a huge shawl, out of any weight yarn that you choose! Oh, and the leaves along the spine and sides of the shawl are symmetrical, which is different than the original Lonely Tree.
The original Lonely Tree Shawl was charted, and it wasn’t very easily modifyable to make it larger - which is why the Elder Tree was made! Have a couple balls of lace weight yarn that you want to use up? Like The Lonely Tree Shawl? Well, The Elder Tree Shawl is here to help
The Elder Tree Shawl is another lovely Fall weather leaves shawl knit in a worsted weight yarn. A perfect edition to any autumn wardrobe. It’s a simple lace knit that would be good for intermediate level knitters who are comfortable with knitting, purling, and working yarn overs.Yarn: Mrs. Crosby Steamer Trunk. We used 5 skeins on 5.5mm needles.
Grab some yarns that light your imagination on fire and play with colour in Kimba Shawl. Anything goes in this fun project – speckles or semi-solids, a gradient or a fade, wild contrasts or classic neutrals. The shawl starts with a garter body shaped with short rows to form a crescent shape. The dramatic flames of lace that form the border are worked in four colours, making for engrossing knitting as you race to the next stripe. Choose from the small, still generous, size or knit the large for a piece that can be wrapped and worn in a variety of ways.Now I need to get working on Veronika. I want it finished by the end of the month which won't be a problem. It's a pretty quick knit. The problem is that new yarn is arriving and I'm going to have to try it out. If it isn't good I can't sell it :)
A slightly fitted vest knit in one piece from the bottom up with armbands and collar picked up.
This top down shawl starts with easy garter stitch. Two contrasting colors are added with a giant holey lace pattern. The holes increase in size while also adding stitches to the overall semi-circular shape. The fabric is knit loosely with a worsted weight yarn resulting in a deceivingly fast large shawl.

Jess had been a knitter and a blogger for a while, and, because she was an active blogger, she knew that there was all this great information out there from other fiber lovers – but with the growing number of crochet and knitting blogs, finding that information just kept getting harder! It was getting frustrating for her to try and find information about the patterns and yarns that she was interested in using. Casey thought that he would be able to build a website that could solve her problems, so they started working on it together, introducing it to a few friends at a time.
