Kiri Shawl


The kiri shawl. Designed by Polly from All Tangled Up. (Before I learn how to put links here, you can google her ;-)

I love it. Learned lace from it. Many thanks to Wendy, who taught me how to read a lace pattern.

Used Rowan Yorkshire Tweed yarn. 5 skeins plus ten yards from a six skein. I don't really like the yarn because it sheds a lot.

Used size 6 24inch circular needle. Knitted 12 pattern repeat. The finished product (after blocking) is about 63 inch for the bottom edge of the triangle, 27 inch for the height of the triangle.

Also learned provisional cast on, blocking and using stitch marker for this project. Have to constantly counting the stitches for each pattern repeat. Otherwise it would be a nightmare to go back and debug where I went wrong.
