This pattern is for a set of three home decor pieces: a vase cozy, a lampshade cover, and a picture frame cover.

From the magazine: “Light and airy is the theme with this collection of home accent pieces. Three lace patterns complement each other beautifully, creating an ensemble that goes together like a trio of best friends. The yarn used is brilliant for stitch definition, and it comes in loads of shades so you can match any colour scheme and mood.”

Yarn required for vase wrap only: 110m (120yds).
Yarn required for lampshade only: 220m (240yds).
Yarn required for picture frame only: 110m (120yds).

This lampshade would grace any drawing room, hallway or bedroom. It has been designed by Sarah Murray to fit a sloped square lampshade, and is knitted in a practical acrylic-wool blend. A simple lace pattern adds interest to the design. “Stitch markers are used to separate the four panels - slip the stitch markers whenever you reach them,” Sarah advises.

Size
To fit a square lampshade frame with an upper edge length of 14cm, lower edge length of 26cm and height of 19cm. Fabric stretches slightly over the frame, so a slight variation in these dimensions can be accommodated.
