Lace

I made a lace shawl using a pattern by Patricia Anne Fortune called Sunshine on the Path using Rauma Finullgarn yarn in an interesting fall orange color. The colorway is called Okergul Melert. I only had to rip the pattern back once after loosing my place. I’m learning that I have to track my place in the chart differently than I’ve done before. And I have to think about tension differently. The ‘yarn-overs’ and decreases that create the eyelets in the lace pattern distribute the tension from the rows above and below differently than typical stockinette fabric. Really interesting! The simple pattern used here is called a Trondheim Rose. Great learning experience so far. ...
