Product Details

I often listen to podcasts as I knit, and my absolute favorite is No Such Thing as a Fish. With a fabulous blend of facts and humor, the podcast is like listening in to a conversation between your most intelligent friends. One of the many things I learned listening to the podcast is about the mycorrhizal network of fungi that connect plants, helping them communicate with each other and share resources. While designing Wood Wide Web (a punny name journalists coined for the mycorrhizal network) the lace columns brought to mind the fungi connecting the leafy ends.

Wood Wide Web is provisionally cast on, then the first edging is worked from the center to the edge. The live stitches are picked back up and the body of the shawl is knit before finishing with the second edge. This ensures the two leafy edges are exact mirror images of each other, and no grafting is required!
