The first in a series of shawls named after stations on the London Underground, Knightsbridge uses two contrasting colors of fingering weight yarn to highlight two contrasting textures: smooth stockinette and textural, lacy Shetland Birdseye Lace.
MATERIALS
- 1 skein Malabrigo Sock (440 yds) – colorway “Playa” (main color)
- 1 skein Malabrigo Sock (440 yds) – colorway “Cote d’Azure” (contrasting color)
- size 6 circular needles, 32″
- stitch markers
GAUGE
24 sts and 38 rows = 4” over stockinette stitch after blocking
Stunning and exquisite choice of colours is what comes to mind seeing this lovely Knightsbridge shawl.
I am sitting here, dreaming and yes wondering, could I knit this beautiful shawl?
I think this will be my first choice so now I need to get the pattern and find the yarn. I am presently knitting a small shawlette with Mini Mochi handpainted colours of lovely rich deep blues, green and teal.
Can never have enough Blue, Green or Yellow colours.
Thank you so much for sharing with us. And wishing you many Happy Days of Knitting..
