Harper

$11.00

Harper is a delightful top-down crescent-shape shawl that dabbles in a variety of techniques, like beading and blending colours to give you a 3-coloured effect from 2 skeins! The lace motif creates a special rippling that looks cool in two similarly coloured yarns.

If beads arenโ€™t your jam, check out some tester projects on Ravelry. The shawl looks equally beautiful without them!

This top-down crescent-shaped shawl increases six stitches every two rows, giving the wings that classic crescent-shawl curl. Worked flat, Harper contains written directions and charts. A handy-dandy progress tracker is included to help you with your row and stitch counts.

This shawl pattern shines well with semi-solid, or lightly variegated/speckled yarns. Youโ€™ll blend two of the colours in section 2, by alternating the colours every two rows, so choosing two colourways that pair well together and are similar in colour will achieve the desired look. Note: Colourways that are of a higher contrast will cause a striped appearance, not a cohesive blend. Please plan accordingly!
