Just One More: Haven River

Time for July's Just One More shawl pattern!  This stunning piece was inspired by the construction of Trapeze, one of my all-time favorite MKAL's. Haven River was shown (and taught) this past weekend at The Tin Smith's Wife retreat and my students were a bit blown away by it's geometry!
First, three trapezoids are knit from the center out. These trapezoids are then connected by triangles, which I call connectors. Then, stitches are picked up for the bottom border and a beaded lace ruffle is worked.
Finally, the top edge of the shawl is finished off with attached i-cord. Of course, you can knit this pattern with no beads at all and it will still be stunning!
I knit Haven River in two yarns (you know me, one is never enough!) The light green version shown is in Fibre Company Meadow, a stunning light fingering weight blend of merino, llama, silk and linen. The darker, more variegated version is in Sheepwalk Merino 600, a lovely merino fingering with 600yards/skein.  Be careful when choosing yarn for this shawl to make sure it doesn't have too much variegation... you can see that the lace pattern and beads can get easilylost.

  3. Can you do a video of how to start this? I have tried holding the needles and yarn, and laying them flat on the table, but the needles and yarn seem to tangle and I lose where I'm supposed to be. I have knit in the round many times before, but somehow this one confounds me!! Help!
