Pinewood Lake Shawl – Knitting Pattern
Pinewood Lake is a top-down, triangular shawlette that was designed specifically to showcase hand-dyed or handspun yarn in all of its glory. It’s a quick knit in worsted weight that would be perfect for gift giving, since you could start it now and be finished well in time for this holiday season.
Pinewood Lake is also a perfect “first lace” shawl as well, since there are lots of detailed instructions that walk you step-by-step through the process of knitting the shawlette.
I was inspired to design this shawlette after spinning my first real skein of yarn using a drop spindle. It had enough texture and color variation that I knew I’d have to go with a simple pattern to showcase the yarn itself. I also thought about all of the pretty single skeins of sock yarn I had collected that were a bit too variegated for an all-over lace pattern but that were begging to be shawls nonetheless.
