Inglis Falls 24-09
This design is available here as a standalone pattern, but knitters who take my “Theme and Variations: Exploring Top-Down Triangular Shawls” workshop will receive this pattern free with their class handout. The next opportunity to take this class is July 8, 2024, hosted by Hands On Knitting Center .
Designed for a single skein of sock yarn, I knit this small shawl with Desert Shades yarn from Dyelicious Yarn .
The stocking stitch body and simple lace border works well with the multi-coloured yarn, and would also look lovely in a gradient, a solid, or a tonal colourway. The simple shaping makes the design flexible enough to be knit in yarns of different weights and fibres—it would be a lovely Summer accessory worked up in cotton or a cotton blend.
This is an intermediate project. The techniques you will need to know, or learn, to complete this project are:
- garter tab cast-on (instructions included in pattern);
- knit and purl;
- kyok double increase;
- yo increase;
- k2tog decrease;
- ssk decrease;
- cdd double decrease;
- stretchy bind-off (instructions for lace bind-off used on the sample are included in pattern).
“Inglis Falls is an 18 metre high cascade, created by the Sydenham River meeting the edge of the Niagara Escarpment. The erosive power of the water has carved a deep gorge at the base of the falls. On a clear day you can see down the valley into the City of Owen Sound and out to the Owen Sound harbour.”
