Rainfall Shawlette
Named as an homage to spring, the Rainfall Shawlette is worked sideways and features an integral fringed border created from hundreds of tendrils, reminiscent of streaming rain on windowpanes. A rope cable border mimics the twist of each tiny tendril, while the body portion is simple garter stitch for a relaxing knit. My sample was knit using the lovely Malabrigo Arroyo in the Reflecting Pool colorway.
The pattern has been professionally tech edited and test knit to reduce the potential for error.
CONSTRUCTION
Shawlette is worked from tip to tip in one piece including the cable border and tendril edging. Size is easily modified to accommodate yarn quantity or weight. Suggestions for such modifications are included.
