Maidenhall is a two-colour triangle shawl featuring varied textured patterns of chevrons, triangles and small bobbles in contrasting bands for knitting interest, broken up by plain sections for colour contrast, leading into a wide fluted rib border.

The design was very loosely inspired by some of the female characters in the TV series “Vikings”.

The shawl is worked from the top down in one piece, increasing in size towards the border.

All of the sections of the shawl have both written and charted directions so you can work from whichever you prefer. Illustrated instructions for the increase used are also provided, as well as additional advice for mirror/left-hand knitters.
