I am particularly fond of Shetland Fair Isle patterns – as well as those of northern Europe. This rectangular wrap incorporates an all-over Fair Isle stitch pattern and a peerie border pattern.

My aim was to achieve a more contemporary look for the accessory by using just two colorways of a smooth lightweight Merino wool.

Note that the shawl is knit in the round and steeked.
