Tiffany is a generous shawl with a half-pi construction that makes dramatic use of RiverKnits’ Rainbow Mini Skeins. A mix of lace patterns, garter stitch and slip stitches create a stunning overall effect.
The kit for Tiffany (yarn plus printed pattern) is also available from RiverKnits.
Yarn: RiverKnits Nene 4 Ply Rainbow Mini Skein Set, (100% Bluefaced Leicester Wool, 12 x 80m per 20g mini skeins, 960m per 240g set); Shadow Rainbow, 1 set of 12 colours
Needles: 3.75mm (US 5), circular, 120cm or longer, or size required to achieve stated tension
Notions: 2 stitch markers, Tapestry needle
Tension: Because of the way the colour changes work with the pattern, your tension is very important.
Using 3.75mm needles, knit your tension swatch according to instructions on page 2.
Measurements: Block to: 168 x 84cm (66 x 33”)
After blocking, shawl will pull in, reducing size by a few cm in both directions to 161 x 80.5cm (63 1/2 x 31 3/4“)
Notes: Colours 1, 2 & 3 are used again at the end of the shawl (see p.5 for colour order).
Row numbers restart from 1 at each new section. All colour changes occur at the start of a RS row.
