Marram Kit

The Marram shawl is worked in segments using short-row shaping to create a semi-circle. It pairs a section of stocking stitch with a deep band of leafy lace and a pointed lace edging. The project begins with a long provisional cast-on, which is later undone and the stitches are picked up to work a picot cast-off around the upper edge. Published in Issue 182 of The Knitter magazine, Marram was designed specifically for The Fibre Co.’s Cumbria Fingering, a lovely blend of mohair, Merino and Masham wool, which comes in a wide range of lovely heathered shades.

The Knitter is a British knitting magazine. Enthusiastic knitters will find beautiful patterns to delight and inspire in this collectable magazine.
