A Spirit of Guernsey

My Guernsey Shawl pattern got released in the latest issue of Love of Knitting, Fall 2017. A really big shawl in aran weight yarn - perfect to keep you warm on the coldest of days. So my type of shawl!

Smiling while I type this, because for once we have the weather the season calls for in Germany, so I don't really want to think about cold days. But one has to get prepared, don't you think?

It is an enjoyable knit with stripes in garter stitch alternating with stripes in different knit and purl patterns and for me it was a 'just one more stripe' pattern and the shawl was finished in no time.

If you prefer your shawl a little smaller, just omit the last two stripes and work the border instead.
