For those who have mastered basic knitting techniques and are ready to expand their skills. Patterns may introduce slightly more complex techniques and patterns, such as shaping, increasing, decreasing or working multiple colors or easy lace patterns. The yarn weight may vary, and the patterns might introduce working with double-pointed needles or circular needles. Patterns will help knitters gain confidence and experience with new techniques while still working within a manageable level of difficulty.
Description
The Bindweed Shawl offers the familiar comfort of a triangular shawl combined with beautiful textures. The fabric is richly decorated with a pattern of intertwined cables and nupps inspired by the dance of gentle bindweed plants. Rhythmic and intuitive, the pattern knits up faster than expected.
Bindweed Shawl is worked from tip to tip with increases along one edge for the first half of the pattern and mirrored decreases for the second. Stitch patterns include cables, nupps, and delicate faux cables along the edges. The pattern has detailed instructions on making three different shawl sizes. Directions are both charted and written out. Videos for nupps and cabling without a cable needle are provided.
Cumbria with its combination of great stitch definition and next-to-skin softness is the perfect yarn for the Bindweed Shawl.
