Flicker
Love this pattern? Every week, I send a short, chatty email about what I’m making, what I’m thinking, and what’s coming next. Sign up for the Truly Myrtle Mini-Mag! – it’s like a letter from the friend who designed this.✨
Knitted in one piece from corner to corner Flicker is a stunning, lightweight shawl edged with lace, evoking the magical glow cast by dancing flames.
The long, narrow crescent-shape wraps twice around your neck and shines like a piece of striking jewellery.
Flicker’s lace is deceptively simple and knitted at the same time as the shaped garter body. The pattern includes a clear explanation on how to make adjustments for a longer or shorter shawl and easily accommodates different skein lengths.
With written & charted instructions, Flicker is perfect for experienced knitters and adventurous beginners looking for a special, one skein project.
