Cloverleaf Shawl


Well, well, well.  It seems to me that when you focus and knit on one project exclusively, that said project gets completed in a timely manner.  I worked on this knit daily for two weeks and knitted more than what was already completed before my knitting marathon.

Those progress markers work.


I enjoyed this knit and the mindlessness of a 12 row repeat (I think 12 rows).  I created this shawl out of my own imagination and used a Barbara Walker pattern dictionary (the first book published).  The cloverleaf stitch pattern was a delight to knit.

What made this stitch pattern nice was the simplicity and repeatability of the design and I could knit and watch tv at the same time. 


I would definitely recommend the yarn, Manos del uruguay Marina.  This single ply yarn was soft and lovely to have in my hands.

  8. The shawl came out wonderfully well but I never had any doubts. Isn't it amazing what knitting on one project can finish? That makes me smile because I have had the same experience more times than I care to recall. Very pretty.
