I knew it wouldn't be long until I am back using more of the Colinette Yarns that I have in my yarn stash. This time I have chosen a bright blue Mohair yarn in shade Blue Saturn and it is an Aran weight yarn in 78% Mohair, 13% Wool and 9% Nylon.
I chose a simplistic pattern due to the fuzziness of the Mohair and this pattern is adaptable to the amount of yarn that you have. I cast on on 13th January and you work the basic pattern from the top down and then you decide how many rows of eyelet lace you want to work and if you want to split it up into sections of eyelet lace and plain and how many rows of each. This way you can use up all of your yarn and make a bigger shawl or just work the minimum if you have a partial skein, its up to you.
It appeared slightly out of shape when it came off the needles on 14th January 2015 but as always a soak and block has rectified that. A simple, quick yet elegant shawl to make.
