On Holiday by Michelle Miller has eleven lovely designs that uses 1000 yards of yarn or less! Michelle is known for creating beautiful patterns that use only one skein of luxury yarn and continues with that theme in On Holiday and combines her talents with five other designers to bring you the types of projects you’ll want to knit on your summer holiday or for the holidays! These patterns were hand picked from the best of the Holiday Yarn Club over the years and combined into one book in time for your own holiday knitting.

There is something for every knitter in this collection. The book contains directions for mittens, socks, shawls, wraps, and a cowl. All patterns have thoroughly tested written instructions and charts where applicable.

The Artemis One Skein Shawl was written especially for the Holiday Yarns Lace Club kit from July 2011 and inspired by the Greek Goddess Artemis. Artemis is known as a Huntress and I incorporated some arrow like motifs into the knit. This quick-to-knit triangle lace shawlette is simple and elegant with its lovely, knit-on lace edging and uses less than 500 yards. Please visit Holiday Yarns to purchase kits.

This pattern has been tech edited and test knit for accuracy and clarity and includes written instructions as well as charts.
