Rose Trellis Shawl

Rosetrellisshawl_2

This is a large but lightweight shawl in a fairly complicated lace pattern, so it's best suited to experienced lace knitters or knitters with less experience and lots of enthusiasm. I've knitted it twice and still adore the rose trellis stitch pattern. Download the revised PDF with new! improved! charts and directions.

Sweaters

  • Infant's Aran pullover
    Back in the dark ages (as in pre-1987), I used to knit sweaters. Nowadays, I rarely do, so I'll use this album to record some of what I have done and may yet to be.

Doll Knits

  • Short sleeve sweater
    A collection of (mostly) knitted doll clothing.

Socks and small knits

  • Keesmere Ski Hat
    These are all handknitted socks and other small items. Most of these were knitted from my own handspun yarn. Click on an image for a larger picture and description, plus charts for some.

    (Most of the Celtic designs came from Celtic Charted Designs by Co Spinhoven, an excellent and inexpensive resource.)

Lace work

  • Beaded shawl
    A collection of knitted lace shawls, stoles and wimples. Many were done in handspun yarn. Click on an image for a larger picture and description, plus charts for some.
