The new Vineyard shawl is knitted with a single brand new yarn called Boheme.
Don't the colors look like they are straight from a vineyard? From rich delicious grape tones to various tones of green simulating the pretty leaves. The shawl is knitted in a crescent shape, from the top down in simple stockinette stitch, it grows all along the sides with oversized eyelets. This shawl is a great project for knitters of all experience levels.
The skein is doing all the work for you, the color, texture and weight changes happen all automatically. You simply start knitting from the top down and continue pretty much up until you run out of yarn. No worries, the pattern tells you where that may be....
The unblocked shawl measures 78" in overall length, 17" in middle height. The pattern is entirely written.
