Windswept moors, passion, loss, revenge, and the odd ghost or two: that’s more than enough inspiration for a shawl. This shawl is a tribute to Emily Bronte’s Wuthering Heights.

This shawl is perfect for polishing your lace knitting skills. Some of the motifs are easy; others are a little more challenging. It is a sampler shawl, with each motif comprising a unit that could be swapped out, extended or shortened, as you choose.

The shawl is constructed in two halves, which are joined together at the end.

I chose a non superwash wool with a slightly rustic look. If you prefer, superwash yarn works well. As I was first working my swatches, I used leftover sock yarn and it blocked beautifully.

So grab the book, crank up Kate Bush’s spooky song, or watch one of the adaptations while you work on this shawl!
