Clever Little Shawl |
Carol Sanders created this pattern, inspired by an antique shawl. She
likes to say that the credit belongs to the original unknown creator,"
Myrtle" she fondly calls her, but I know that this little gem wouldn't
be available to us without Carol's skill and talent. She has kindly offered
her pattern to all of us to knit and enjoy and has given me permission
to put it up on my website. As the creator of this pattern, Carol asks
that you not sell the pattern nor use it in any way for profit. Knit it
for those you love and enjoy it as a gift from one knitter to another.
So many knitters have requested the pattern that while I haven't yet
photographed one, I wanted to get the pattern up on my site as soon as
possible. Until a photo appears you can knit it as a "mystery shawl"!
Some hints: the shawl is in garter stitch, knitted side-to-side. The lace
edging is knitted on as you go. The shawl is shaped with shorts rows and
closes "cleverly" with interlacing front tips created at the
beginning and end of the shawl. It is very easy to knit once you get going
and you may feel secure knowing that even without a picture, the directions,
given here in Carol's original format, work perfectly. Just follow the
direction. I have knitted many of these lovely shawls in many differnt
yarns. I am honored to present Carol's pattern to you. Click on the link
