Design
Wool Weaver is inspired by beautiful wool weavings. Knit from the flat edge down to the point. The increases are incorporated by placing yarn overs on both sides of the center stitches which are slipped. Simple and easy to memorize garter and stockinette sections add just the perfect amount of interest. Short pieces of fringe are added to the contrast garter rows and large tassels are sewn onto all three points of the shawl. Finally, the centers of the bobble diamonds are added using duplicate stitch. The shawl is charted and also includes written instructions.

This design is a collaboration with Wool & Co. To purchase the yarn through their site visit: https://www.woolandcompany.com/yarn/super-bulky/hedgehog-...
