Branwen
This pattern is now free as I’m unable to offer support. I hope you enjoy it.
Branwen (pronounced BRAN-oo-wen) means ‘White Raven’. She is one of the Celtic battle goddesses & I have taken inspiration from the shape of spear heads and axes, entwined Celtic patterns as well as the shape of raven’s wings. This is a sideways knit triangular shawl, the cabled panel along the lower edge complementing the diamond patterned lace. The size is adjustable & it is suitable for an intermediate knitter.
SIZES: (for the number of repeats shown in my sample)
Approx. width 60” / 162.5 cm; depth 24” / 61 cm; side edges 8” / 20 cm
GAUGE: 4” / 10 cm over lace pattern using fingering on 4mm needles: before blocking: 25 sts / 35 rows; after blocking: 24 sts / 28 rows
MATERIALS & TOOLS:
Yarn: Fingering: approx 730 - 750 yd / 668 - 686 m
Needles: 1 x 32’’ / 80 cm circular:
US # 6 / 4.0 mm or size to achieve desired gauge.
Notions: Cable needle; 3 stitch markers; blocking wires & pins.
SKILL LEVEL: intermediate - advanced intermediate

The detailed instructions are fully written as well as charted throughout. The pattern has been fully tech edited and tested.
