blackcurrant


Spring seems to be a season for shawls to me. Last year it was the textured shawl, but this year I didn't have any pattern that much obsessive - so I made one myself. Perfect little knit, lots of garter and enough of Stockinette. Love, love love.

Love the shape as it forms small ruffles to the points or ends - kind of ruffles with no ruffles. It's drapey, wearable and so soft. And that deep purple, lilac and red altogether is so perfect. My color.

Pattern: my own
Yarn: Casbah Sock and Wetterhoff Sivilla (held together)
Needles: 6 mm
