About this Pattern

Across the Valley is a large asymmetric triangular shawl which combines sections of cozy slipped stitches with a deep border of elegant lace.

Starting at the tip, the shawl begins to take shape with a simple slipped stitch pattern. Easy to remember and full of texture, once you find your stride with the sequence of stitches the section grows quickly.

Next come the bold colourful stripes. Here you will blend the two larger sections using a contrast colour and create statement stripes that alternate with the border lace colour. These stripes continue the same familiar slipped stitch pattern that you have been working, but by adding in the new colours the stitches take on a whole new look.

The patterned slipped stitches then break away into an elegant, airy lace pattern. Using just a handful of lace stitches the easy repeats make it easy to keep going for as long as your yarn will allow. 

This pattern has been tech edited and test knitted prior to publication. The pattern includes both written instructions and charts. It also includes a handy stitch count checklist so you can eaily keep track of your progress as you go.
