Rosie's Shawl is a one-skein-wonder knit that is perfect for your single skein of sock yarn that you have laying around! This looks good as a single color, and would lend itself well to a variegated or gradient yarn.
Skills needed:
YO
K2tog TBL
i-cord bind-off
This is a simple pattern to follow (I hope) that is easily memorized and is, IMHO, perfect for a travel project.
When published, 25% of the cost of the pattern will be donated to Genessee County Animal Control, which is where we adopted this shawl's namesake, Rosie.
Pattern testing for this runs long, but I can guarentee that you will be completed with this long before the due date! I will have communication for this test knit over Slack, an online instant messaging program that allows for instant connection with myself as well as the other test knitters. Those who are accepted in this test knit will receive an invitation to my Slack channel. Slack can be downloaded on Android and iPhone, as well as on Mac OS and PC. If you aren't comfortable downloading the program, it can also be accessed via a web browser.
Notions and yarn needed for this is:
approx 400 yrds sock weight yarn
US3 (3.25mm) circular needles (min legnth of 16 inches)
Stitch markers (if desired)
tapestry needle to weave in ends when done.
The pattern is in its last round of Tech Editing, and test knitting will start the week of 13 July.
