At Knitters Day Out, our booth Liverpool Yarns was across the way from JoycePryceFiberArts, so I got to look at and lust after her gorgeous gradient packs. I went for the Copper colorway and then held on to it for several months, saving it for something special.

Aramingo was it.

All-over chevron lace flows across this top-down triangular shawl, ending in a wide 3x3 ribbing. It’s blocked aggressively to show off the lace and to create a soft, drapey fabric.

The set of gradient mini-skeins contained six skeins of 100 yards each. I didn’t use all of the 600 yards---about 400 altogether. So you can also use 400 yards of any fingering weight yarn if you’d rather have a one-color shawl.

The directions for the shawl body are charted only, and the directions for the ribbing are written.

This has a skill level of Intermediate: you do need to be comfortable reading a chart.

The finished measurements are a wingspan of 56” after blocking and a back length of 24” after blocking.

You will need 400 yards of fingering weight yarn and a US size 5 (3.75mm) 32” circular needle. While gauge is not crucial, it will affect the finished size of the shawl and the amount of yarn used.

Many thanks to kep for test knitting, to Gina for modeling, and to Katherine Vaughan for tech editing.
