Ishneich
This is the seventh and final design in the Celtic Cable Shawls collection
Ishneich is a top-down triangular shawl, designed to work well with a variegated yarn and a co-ordinating solid or semi-solid. The cabled section features a Celtic knot comprised of a single strand looping around itself. Two lateral braids are worked after the cabled section, and finally a lace edging is knitted on perpendicularly.
In the materials list, Yarn A refers to the semi-solid yarn used for the cabled section and Yarn B refers to the variegated background yarn used in the body section and lace edging.
