Sandri
Sometimes knitwear comes into being all by itself. This time, one sleepless night I was pondering how various decreases, which are easy to knit on the right side of the work, could be knit on the wrong side. The next morning I let my imagination run free and let pencil and graph paper do the work for me – a beautiful lace pattern formed, which resembles rosebuds as well as candle flames.
Knitting the pattern isn’t easy at first. First, a huge amount of stitches is cast on. Then the lace is knit on both right and wrong side of the work. The pattern’s stitch count is changing all the time and it contains several different decreases on WS rows. In the end, there are short rows, which give the shawl its crescent shape. For comfort, I can say that knitting the pattern gets easier as one becomes more familiar with the WS decreases.
This knitwear is named after my mother-in-law. She is always able to support and encourage when I feel like the knitting is driving me crazy.
German and finnish translations will be available in december 2016.
