12shawls2018 #3

Rombik is the Russian word for Rhombus.

My third shawl in the series of shawls for friends. Follow the tag “shawlsforfriends” above to see the rest. ;-)

This year I would like to design and knit several shawls for some friends who have been kind to me over the years, but especially this past year.
My thoughts going into this series of designs for friends are:

  1. to use the color I know they love and wear;
  2. design a shawl to complement their lifestyle and personality;
  3. make future blocking easier for them by keeping the borders easy to block, since most of them are not knitters;

Adding some inspiration pictures. Pics of gazebo taken by me in the Japanese Friendship Garden here in San Diego. You can follow my nature photography along with knitting adventures on Instagram.

I designed and knitted this shawl for my friend Helen, who I was lucky to meet few years ago through our kids being on the same swim team. We teamed up as well and I am always looking forward to our walks, hikes and conversations. I hope she will like this surprise shawl ;-)
Pattern will be published next week :-)
