Rayado
The Ghost Town Collection Rayado shawl is the second of 6 patterns designed for a collection created in collaboration with The Farmer’s Daughter Fibers. Inspired by the harsh beauty of ghost towns of the American West, this collab is really meaningful for us. I am really proud of what we created and so happy to be able to share it with you.
The rest of the Ghost Town collection will be released slowly over the next three months so please stay tuned. A huge thank you to Candice and her Farmer’s Daughter team for this super special collaboration! All photos were taken by Candice English.
A generously sized shawl featuring marling, eyelets, and a colorwork spine, Rayado shawl will keep you entertained as you knit, and warm and stylish after.
I like to think of this shawl as what Clint Eastwood might wear if he were a modern hipster.
Optional (but highly encouraged!) fringe completes the look.
Pattern Notes:
This triangle shawl is worked from the top down, beginning with a garter tab cast on. Following
the garter tab cast on, 4 increases are worked on every RS row.
The main body of the shawl is knit in sections—the marled sections are worked holding 2 colors of fingering weight yarn together and the eyelet sections are worked with only one yarn in a simple eyelet pattern. The center spine is knit in a stranded colorwork design in the marled sections, so when you reach the spine, you simply separate your 2 yarns and knit the pattern as shown on the chart.
The central spine of the shawl is worked in stockinette in the eyelet sections of the shawl and stranded colorwork in the marled sections. Working the colorwork only on the marled sections means you are only doing stranded colorwork, no intarsia!
