Apheleia
£5.50
Apheleia is a crescent-shaped garter stitch shawl with stripes that get increasingly thinner/thicker. The garter stitch makes it deliciously squishy and warm – perfect for snuggling up in on a cool day. Named after the Greek spirit of ease and simplicity, Apheleia is a really relaxing knit – perfect for knitting in front of the TV or knit night.
The pattern has written instructions only. The pattern has been tech edited and test knitted. There’s a screenshot of the pattern and a list of the stitches used at the bottom of the photos. These additional techniques are used: provisional cast on, garter stitch tab and stretchy cast-off.
