The Rachel Shawl is a large crescent shawl in the style of my other “Family Member” shawls. She is definitely related to Maurice but a little bit fancier! She was designed in collaboration with Nellie and
Eve in their Single Farm BFL base in the colourway Camelia. The yarn is plant dyed which adds subtle
variations to the skeins.
The shawl is created by knitting from tip to tip so you never have too many stitches on your needle.
The main body of the shawl is a variation on a garter rib pattern while the lace for the border has been
chosen because it looks like a string of hearts.
