About this Pattern

“Inspired by rambling flowers, this shawl has an exquisite lace stitch pattern”.

The Knitter Magazine

This pattern was originally published in the Knitter Magazine (issue 164) Inspired by the flowering vine of the Sweet Autumn Clematis (Clematis Terniflora), this pattern follows the cascading trails of blooming flowers. As the flowers mature they become fluffy, feathered seedheads which is depicted by the use of mohair throughout the shawl.

The shawl is knitted with 2 strands of laceweight yarn held together, the sample used a light, shimmering merino silk paired with the fluffy mohair.

*There is also the option to add the 3.5mm / 100cm needle to your kit if you wish. I recommend using sharp tipped needles for this project due to the lace stitches. The needle provided as an option for the kit is a KnitPro Zing which has a sharp-ish tip but if you would like a longer, sharper needle tip then I would recommend the Addi Lace Needle or the HiyaHiya Lace needle.
