Olivia

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.
8 page pattern is in pdf format, downloadable immediately after purchase.
Price: £2.75
