{"product_id":"copy-of-knitting-pattern-7","title":"Lady of Lórien Shawl Knitting Pattern","description":"\u003cp\u003eSimple and elegant, the Lady of Lorien Shawl is a timeless crescent shawl pattern. Among its many desirable qualities is the fact that there is nary a purl stitch in the entire shawl. Slender slipped stitch columns are set against a backdrop of relaxing garter stitch, which perfectly balances cozy plumpness with lightweight wearability, and radiate as the light of the lady’s star phial. A modified old shale lace pattern finishes the piece with ripples subtly reminiscent of the waters of Galadriel’s mirror.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurements\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWingspan - 78in.

I decided to pull the bottom edge just enough to open up the lace border, because I didn’t want to open up the garter stitch of the main body too much, but if you want a deeper shawl or like the look of it stretched out more, then feel free to block a little more aggressively.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGauge\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e24 sts x 40 rows = 4in (10cm) in stockinette worked flat after blocking\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYarn\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSample uses \u003cbr\u003eRefracted Light Fiber Arts - Rivendell Fingering (437yds \u003cspan\u003e400m\u003c\/span\u003e, 100g) - 2 skeins \u003cbr\u003eRefracted Light Fiber Arts - Lorien Lace (459yds \u003cspan\u003e420m\u003c\/span\u003e, 50g) - 1 skein \u003cbr\u003eBoth in the “Smoke” colorway\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo substitute, use \u003cbr\u003eYarn A - 800 yards fingering weight yarn \u003cbr\u003eYarn B - 280 yards fingering weight yarn in a contrasting color or texture\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e(I love the halo and slight luxuriousness that the hint of suri adds to this pattern, but you could also achieve a lovely effect with mohair or by adding contrast in color instead of texture)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeedles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUS 2 (2.75mm) 36in.
