Olivia Shawl

The pattern is currently in the last stages of being tested and edited. I had always planned to make this a charity pattern but, inspired by yarndancer‘s blog post decided to make it open for pre-orders to get the ball rolling. The actual pattern will be ready after the weekend. 50% of all profits from sales of this pattern until the end of September will be donated to UNICEF’s Pakistan Flood Children’s Appeal BTW, if you’re in the market for a sock pattern, do look at yarndancer’s Ravelry store. Lots of lovely designs and she is also making a donation to the Pakistan Relief Fund for every pattern sold. :-D

Olivia Shawl

Olivia is a top-down triangular shawl with a series of different stitch patterns to keep your interest. Declared “un-putdown-able” by one tester!

Each pattern section flows into the next and the number of repeats can easily be increased to make the shawl completely customisable. The lace increases to form a natural curve in the top edge of the triangle to fit around the shoulders.

The pattern contains both written and charted directions.

Size: Shawl shown measures 106cm/42 inches by 124cm/49 inches. Finished measurements will depend on how severely the shawl is blocked.
Yarn: Approximately 425 to 475m fingering-weight yarn. Shawl shown is knitted in Artist’s Palette Yarns Smoothie Sock (75% superwash merino wool/25% nylon, 425m/100g) in colour: Olive
Tension: 26 stitches = 10cm/4 inches in stocking stitch before blocking with 3mm (US 2½) needles. Actual tension is not vital but will affect how much yarn is needed and the finished size of the shawl.

Price: £2.75

and Thank You. :-D
