Announcing the debut of my newest shawl design...
Wings to Heaven is a fun and easy shawl to knit in a shape that stays put on the shoulders. The lace pattern forms rays that radiate out from the neck and ends with an optional heart at the bottom edge and a picot border. The blue and pink version pictured here was knit with a fingering weight handspun yarn from Targhee wool on size 6 needles. This sample shawl does not use the heart at the border.
The 6-page pattern includes line-by-line written directions, a lace chart, and a cast on tutorial. The pattern is written to use fingering weight yarn with options to knit it in lace to worsted weight (or even handspun), and instruction
s for knitting a larger shawl. The fingering weight version pictured above uses only 350-400 yards of yarn.
The darker blue sample is a scarf sized version of the pattern with the heart edge option. Here's a close up picture of the heart edge. A scarf size can be knit with about 150 yards of fingering weight or 200 yards of lace weight.
The pattern sells for $5.00 and is available as an immediate download through Ravelry with a Paypal purchase.
$1.00 from each pattern sold will be donated to PanCan (www.pancan.org) for research. You may remember that I lost my friend, Nancy, to this awful disease in late December. Dedicating this shawl design to her seemed a perfect way to honor her memory and support research for this disease.
