Rose Trellis

This shawl is the epitome of “if at first you don’t succeed, try, try again”. I absolutely loved the idea for this shawl when I came up with it. A curved asymmetrical triangular shawl with a lace pattern that grew proportionately as the shawl grew. It was fantastic. All I needed was the right lace pattern and it would be easy, right?

Wrong. The problem was keeping the lace pattern growing nicely without losing the shape of the shawl. I tried and failed in 2022. That shawl evolved and became Driùchdan, so it wasn’t all wasted effort. The idea was still nagging at me though and I really wanted to make it work this time!

I’m reusing this gorgeous “trellis” lace pattern – I’ve used it a few times but not since 2019 so I think it was time for another outing. It took me a couple of tried to figure out how to keep the shape while growing the size of the lace pattern, as my Patreons can attest, but it was worth it and I’m so happy to share it with you at last!

Architectural Beauty

I had a lot of fun with this design. The name of the yarn colour was what sent me off  down this fun rabbit hole. I grew up near Aberdeen – the Granite City as a kid, and lived and worked there as an adult so as you can imagine it’s very close to my

Cherry Leaves

I have loved this lace pattern for a long time. The original is in the book with the two sets of leaves facing each other across a central spine. As well as being pretty wide, the stitch count of the pattern varies over the pattern repeat. This makes it hard to use in your average

Ever since I made Breigichean I’ve been looking for the chance to do more mosaic knitting. I really loved this pattern in particular, so I was on the lookout for ways to use it! So when I was looking for an idea for my June design, this was the perfect place to start! I went

Lace Twill

I have been looking forward so much to knitting more shortie socks – they’re all the fun parts of knitting socks (toes and heels) with none of the boring bits (the leg!) I knew I wanted something lacy because we’re thinking summery and I added the rib to give the edges a little more stability.
