New Pattern: Yarra

So a new pattern. Meet Yarra, a gorgeous lace stole worked in two identical pieces, so the pretty Estonian lace edge is shown to its best. Designed in 6 sections using different lace skills but joined by relaxing knit and purl sections for an enjoyable knit. 

The “Yarra” name comes from A Good Yarn, which sits at the corner of Oole and Yarra Road. Originally designed for Lace Club 2020 at A Good Yarn, Cleethorpes.

The yarn used in the wrap is the sumptuous and silky Fyberspates Scrumptious 4Ply. It is a mix of merino and silk and has the most heavenly drape, which is perfect for a decadent lace wrap. The main sample uses Seafoam and Magenta.

The original sample that I made used Pearl and Mulberry for a softer and more traditional colour palette.

The wrap is designed to use different lace techniques but they are only done in small sections that are separated by restful knit and purl.
My most favourite part of the shawl is the edging, which uses traditional Estonian stitches to make an intricate edge which is deceptively simple to knit.
