January is all about "Knit for Me" time! Create something beautiful for yourself and learn a new skill or two while you're doing, plus have this amazing shawl to wear and enjoy for many, many years.
Robyn Gallimore of Red Bird Knits' created the beautiful
Eliza Shawl in Kauni Effektgarn 8/2. A
colorful triangular shawl knit from the center back of the neck to make use of
the long color changes of Effektgarn.
The motif
is based on an old Anatolian pattern and Robyn thinks Eliza Doolittle might have
liked to wear this on those cool London mornings. Knit in the round using
a steek, which is then cut and wrapped in a stocking stitch binding to neaten up
the edges.
Finished Size: 71" x 31.5"
Yarn: 1000-1200 yards Kauni Effektgarn 8/2 (100% wool, yardage
varies per ball)
Needles: US 6 (4mm)
Gauge: 6 sts = 1" in two color motif in stockinette stitch
Kauni Effektgarn 8/2
is an amazing self striping yarn painted in long, vibrant color repeats
which give your finished garments and accessories beautiful, long
stripes of color. Crafted of 100% wool this sport weight yarn can be
knit and felted with equally stunning results. Let your imagination
flow with projects for shawls, cardigans and pullovers, handbags and
more.
