One of the easiest lace knitting stitches, Old Shale stitch forms the basis of this piece, which you can make as a cowl/snood or a scarf. The 2x2 ribs at the edges help to stop it curling. This pretty accessory is designed to accompany Titania's armwarmers, just as Peaseblossom does in A Midsummer Night's Dream.
You need just one ball of James C Brett Shhh, we have lots of colours in stock, and a pair of 5mm knitting needles - you can use straight needles or circular, it's knitted flat so go with your personal preference.
This pattern might not be suitable for complete beginners but it would make a nice move-on project once you've mastered the basics.
We'll post out a printed copy to you (choose small letter at checkout) but if you'd like it sooner, we can also e-mail it - don't forget to contact us to let us have your e-mail address. You can also arrange to collect the pattern from the shop, Pins & Needles in Devizes.
