The Lindis Shawl is knitted top down. The body is knitted in stockinette stitch with a jagged line of eyelets. A small eyelet section separates the stockinette body from the garter border. This insert increases the stitchcount significantly, ensuring a large wingspan and good drape.
Due to the gauge it is a quick and easy knit that will not pose difficulties even for beginners. It is the ideal shawl to showcase a special yarn; it is worked best in a solid yarn (speckled or variagated yarns are not advised as this will obscure the eyelet line of the design).

Yarn: Harrisville Nightshades, 100 % wool; 228 m/250 yards per 100 g, shown in colour VCR (dark sample)

Please note that the Harrisville Nightshades is listed as a dk yarn, but is on the heavy side. You can also very well substitute with a worsted weight yarn.

You may substitute with any yarn that knits up to gauge. Please keep in mind that differences in gauge affect yardage; so make sure you have enough yarn to finish your project!
