Elowen Lace and Garter Stitch Shawl – Project Kit

This beautiful Lace and Garter Stitch Shawl was designed by Faye Perriam-Reed using our Samite Silk Blend 4-ply. Your yarn only project kit will contain one 100g skein of our Samite Silk Blend 4-ply beautifully presented in one of our recyclable cardboard boxes. Faye has used Galahad but you could pick any of our lovely Samite shades.

This pattern is a lovely simple feather and fan pattern and the scalloped edge it produces. Paired with garter stitch and this lovely silk/wool blend, a rather elegant shawl was born with a number of ways to wear it. Beginning at the bottom edge, the fan pattern is worked, followed by a Cornish ‘flag’ within each pattern repeat. The top of the shawl is gently shaped using short rows and decreases.

Please note that the Elowen Lace and Garter Stitch Shawl kit does not contain a printed copy of the pattern. The pattern is available to purchase from Faye Perriam-Reed’s website
