Our final stop on our Journey is the city of Faro.

São Brás de Alportel dates back to the Paleolithic times, as proven by several findings such as flint chips, quartz and quartzite to name but a few.

Almodôvar is a quaint village in the district of Beja, Alentejo. This village has been occupied in the past by the Romans and Islamic people, which to this day is still visible in the village. The Roman built damn is one of these landmarks due to its unique construction and to this day has been conserved in perfect condition.

Aljustrel is known for its explorations in mining and metallurgy which started during the Copper Age roughly 3000 BC. During this time, materials were collected and the proof thereof lies in the hills of “Nossa Senhora do Castelo” (Our Lady of the Castle), where the population of that time lived.

Montemor-o-Novo is located in Central Alentejo. It was built in the center of three important landmarks, Montemor-o-Novo Castle, the Church of “Nossa Senhora da Visitação” (Our Lady of Visitation) and the Church of “Nossa Senhora da Conceição” (Our Lady of Conceição). It is a 15-20 minute ride to Évora and about 60 minutes to Lisboa.

Mora belongs to the Evora Districts. The original village was created around a church but due to lack of documentation it is unknown which church. Most people tend to think that Largo do Calvário is where it all started.

Note the Main Colour uses up most of the yardage in these socks, you only need roughly 10g each of the contrast colours

This shawl was designed specifically for the KNIT WITH FRIENDS Festival held on June 8-9 at Seminario do Vilar in Porto, Portugal.

To mark the 6-year anniversary of Dona Agulha, yarn shop in Famalicão, Portugal I designed this cowl with some texture and simple lace, great for beginners and interesting enough for seasoned knitters.

If you’re looking for a last-minute gift, look no further than these mittens. They are easy to make, fairly quick to make and suitable for all knitters, whether you consider yourself a beginner knitter, and intermediate knitter or and advanced knitter.

Inspired by the many Nordic colorwork patterns and The Fibre Co. Lore yarn, I created a simple colorwork chart, added in a little bit of corrugated ribbing and voila, this little hat was created.

This shawl was designed to be knit using two colours, but you can easily knit it in one colour. Yarns with long colour repeats would also work well for this shawl. I would strongly recommend using a solid or tonal colour for the lace pattern as a variegated yarn will obscure the lovely pattern. I have provided 3 different options for this shawl.

NOTE:As of March 01, 2015, this pattern will be available through Loveknitting.com
