Just in time for the weekend is the Syne shawlette!
It's inspired by fireworks at New Year, which are
particularly beautiful when viewed over the castle in Edinburgh. This
shawlette is a one skein knit, inspired by those most giant of
explosions which radiate outward to end in further noise and sparkles.
The yarn! Oh goodness the yarn. It's the Lush Light base by Rainbow
Heirloom, which is made up of alpaca, silk and cashmere. It's the most gorgeous shade of green as well, I really fell in love.
Given that you’ve been knitting for others all through December, January
might be time for a little something for yourself. What are you currently making for yourself?
Similar to my previous shawls, it's semi-circular shaped, beginning with a garter tab at the centre top, increasing as you knit down toward the lace border.
You can find Syne on ravelry here.
