In the Limelight
What is the one knitted garment that is wearable all year long? It’s the shawl! It keeps us safe from blustery temperatures in the winter, but it is the perfect foil against summer’s cool evenings and blasting air conditioners.
The In The Limelight shawl starts in one corner and grows its’ clever patterned stitches across to the other end, creating a beautiful, wearable, year round shawl.
This pattern contains both charts and written instructions, making it suitable for adventurous beginners as well as the more seasoned knitter.
