Rosamie is a love note to my favorite season spring and the longing for days filled with bees buzzing and flowers blooming. This asymmetrical shawl design is packed with tons of little details. It is worked on the bias and begins with a simple honeycomb pattern that flows into a charming colorwork section. From there, the textured & lace border begins, emulating a blossoming garden. It features plenty of basic stitches, a few knots & cables, cute eyelets, and unique stitches to keep the knitter engaged. These stitches culminate in a bobbled and scalloped edging which gives the shawl an intricate and romantic feel. Rosamie is worked holding a strand of DK and lace weight yarn together at a medium gauge creating a drapey, luxurious piece. The pattern features 3 sizes to ensure you can find your preferred fit.
