Product Details

I’ve Got the Blues is a top-down shawl in the Faroese style.

Started with a garter-tab, there is an ever-widening center-lace panel, a garter-stitch border, and lovely (and mindless) stockinette body. The shawl uses approximately 920 yards of a fingering-weight gradient wool (shown here in Queensland’s United Foursome – colorway “Bondi Beach”) and US#4 (circs are best to hold all the sts!) so the drape is wonderfully light and airy.

The garter hem is deep to avoid any tendency to curl; also, because MOST people knit garter at a slightly looser gauge than stockinette, this hem will allow stretch for blocking the lace and a very slight ruffly-ness to the bottom of the shawl.

The directions are charted and written out.
