Harrisville Designs released their 2014 Autumn Collection late last week, and I have a pattern in it.
Rollinsford Shawl is worked in Harrisville’s Silk and Wool DK yarn. The shawl is a traditional top-down, triangular shawl.
The top portion of the shawl is alternating garter stitch and stockinette stitch panels. Increases along the edges and the center spine are worked as yarn overs on the right side of the shawl; on the wrong side, the yarn overs are knit through the back loop to close the hole created by the yarn over.
The bottom portion of the shawl has an openwork pattern that is super fun to work. The stitch pattern is worked on both the right and wrong sides of the shawl. The stitch pattern is easy to memorize since each row uses the same repeat.
The combination of garter stitch, stockinette stitch, and the openwork pattern adds a lot of fun texture to the shawl, which shows off the nature of the yarn.
Rollinsford is available for purchase through Harrisville’s website.
