Silverwood Shawl
Silverwood uses two strands of Road to China Lace held together. It is recommended that you work from a center-pull so the two balls do not roll around or get tangled. When switching to the edging to work with 2 strands of the pewter, there is no need to re-wind another ball; simply pull the yarn from the outside of the center pull ball and work both strands from the same ball.
