Amelia is a bird wing shaped shawl, perfect to drape around your shoulders when you are flying out the door.
Available to purchase in US or UK terms.
.
Rather than the normal triangular shape, this shawl dips down slightly on the outer edges giving a gull wing or bird wing shape.
This drapes beautifully over your shoulders or sits around your neck like a scarf.
The shawl is made with a plain double crochet [US terms] section and then a beautiful feathery pattern, which works up quickly and easily.
You can choose to go larger by extending the first part or by adding more patterned rows, or by using a thicker yarn and larger hook size.
I used 3 x 100g balls of Stylecraft Life,
1 ball of Rose for the solid part and 2 balls of Life Changes – Roses for the patterned rows, with a 4mm G hook.
Stylecraft life and Life Changes are available from any of my online partners, just click on the link at the bottom of this page.♥
Tassels or not, it’s up to you.
I have a video tutorial for making tassels, they are really easy to make and add a beautiful finishing touch.
As I have been having a major sort out because of moving to a new house, I came across a cake of Wolltraum yarn in the colourway Eye in the Sky.
Although I find this yarn soft and beautiful to wear, I do find I have to slow down as I am working with it and keep my tension slightly looser than normal.
This shawl took 1 – 200g cake of 4-ply yarn, 760 meters, with a 4mm G hook.
Ineke used Stylecraft Special Dk in Pistachio, Meadow and Khaki, with a 4mm hook, you can find all the details on her Ravelry project page.
I just love these colours with a denim jacket, and the cowl type effect to keep your neck all warm and cosy.
