Broken Fences is knit from the top down with increases on both sides to create a long crescent shaped shawl. With a simple lace pattern that is both intuitive and relaxing the shawl knits up quickly and without fuss.
I designed this shawl using a single skein of single ply yarn from On The Round. I have to admit, I’m a bit of a fan of her color ways. I may have several skeins in my hoard (…stash) just waiting to become something beautiful. I knit my very first shawl with a rainbow set of single ply, worsted weight yarn from On The Round. I remember being terrified of ruining such beautiful yarn and constantly putting off casting on that first shawl. Once I plucked up the courage I discovered a whole new world of self care. Knitting became my avenue for stress relief, managing my anxiety and inner reflection. Every project is a reflection of my journey to create a better me. I’ve knit many shawls since then, but that first rainbow shawl is still my favorite and holds a very special place in my heart. Creating my first design using this single ply fingering weight yarn from On The Round felt a little like coming home. It was such a joy to knit and create with.
