Malachite Lace
I’ve always been captivated by malachite. There’s something completely entrancing about those rich bands of green.
The Malachite Lace Shawl was designed to feature the distinct beauty of the hand-painted Fleurville yarn by The Yarn Collective, bringing the complex, saturated tone to center stage. Contrasting stripes in two colors mimic the light and dark layers of stone.
The shawl begins with a garter tab at the center top. Then, four increases every right-side row create the triangle shape. Bands of stockinette stitch, contrast garter ridges, and simple lace alternate through the body of the shawl. The same lace motif is carried through the deep lace border in the contrast color.
Suggested Yarn:
• The Yarn Collective Fleurville 4 Ply (100% superwash merino, 382 yd. (350 m)/100 g (3.5 oz); 3 skeins in colorway #608 Stem

Needles: US size 5 (3.75 mm), 60-inch (150 cm) circular needle, or size needed to obtain gauge. A long circular needle is recommended in order to accommodate a large number of stitches as the shawl grows.

Gauge: 20 sts and 32 rows to 4’’ (10 cm) in stockinette stitch on US 5 (3.75 mm) needles after blocking.
