Eilidh Shawl Kit - Shetland Wool Lace
This kit includes the printed pattern and a 100g (800m) skein of our 100% Shetland Wool Lace yarn, sufficient to make the standard laceweight version of the shawl as written.
Eilidh (pronounced Ay-lee) is a crescent-shaped shawl incorporating elements of Shetland lace patterns and others which have been inspired by these traditional designs. Worked from the top down on a garter-stitch base, there are options for beading, either allover or for selected sections. (Beads are not included with the kit but are available here.)
Some areas of the design require patterning on both sides, which makes it a little more challenging than many of my designs, but the garter-stitch background makes this much easier than a stocking-stitch ground. The pattern is suitable for intermediate knitters.
The shawl is designed to be worked on a circular needle (the sample used a 3.75mm needle) with a single 800m/100g skein of standard laceweight yarn.
This version measures 210cm wide by 60cm deep after blocking. (The pattern also includes cobweb, fine lace and 4-ply versions.)
The pattern is both charted and written in full.
