Ruth Shawl
This asymmetric triangle shawl combines a lace flower repeat and a simple ribbed border. But it’s the highlight of a contrast colour yarn that transforms this shawl into something special. In the sample the highlight is a bright yellow, chosen for the lovely Ruth from the Ruth Loves to Knit podcast, who inspired the design.

Monies raised from the sale of this pattern will support the LAMB, a hospital in Bangladesh and a charity close to Ruth’s heart and now ours.
