Moorlands Romance Shawl

The Moorlands Romance Shawl This is a crescent shaped shawl in shades of heather and moss to create a very natural, earthy but still feminine canvas of a shawl. It builds first with an easy striped garter panel to get you going on the shape, then into the texture of the double moss stitch, then a lace panel and a traditional basket stitch pattern. Each yarn color is used to both blend with another and be worked alone to give a balanced color rich result. The shape is formed initially by a swift increase from 5 stitches by way of KFB increases and then at each end of the shawl. With its simple construction and repeated stitch patterns it makes for an enjoyable play with color and textures. Within the last Moss stitch section of the shawl you can extend the size which would require a further skein of Yarn A or to make use of the leftovers
