I am now retired from knit design due to progressive arthritis and I am offering my designs to Ravelry users for free. I will not be providing designer support any longer but my patterns are tech edited and almost all have been tested

My wide-lace edged shawl has a dramatic curve of the neck edge and a long finish - enough for additional wraps and an end knot. It’s beauty is enhanced by the merino and silk blend with subtle tonal shifts and great richness in the tans and taupe colorway of Flicker Alight.

Maximum length is 95”/241 cm and the lace edge is 39”/99 cm.

825 yds/754 m of fingering-weight yarn
