Product Details
Goldenleaf is a flowing semi-circular shawl with an expanding leaf pattern, and just enough texture to add depth. The pattern includes 5 possible ending points, and the edging can either be blocked into dripping leaf points, or left to form a fluttery leafy ruffle, as pictured. (The size of the shawl can also be increased in width by adding extra wedges.)
This design was inspired by the beauty of the ginkgo tree. Interestingly, these unusual trees are living fossils, being recognisably related to fossils from 270 million years ago. They are a reminder of the resilience of life on our beautiful planet, and our responsibility to care for it during our brief time here.
The design suits lace to fingering yarn, in solid, semi-solid, gradient or subtle speckle varieties and needs approximately 500m for the smallest size, up to approx 1000m, or more if adding extra wedges.
Can be worked entirely from the written pattern, or from charts with notes.
Thanks to Sabine of Schafgabe, & Mearacaera.
