Japanese Flower Shawl
At long last, I have a picture of my Japanese Flower Shawl.
It’s done! Yes, that’s Hunter’s head. He’s been trying to eat it, since its made from 6 balls of Rowan Felted Tweed.
This was a pretty quick knit - the pattern came from a Japanese Knitting book (Couture Knit 11 Elegance Knit), and it wasn’t at all hard to follow the chart.
Here’s a close up of the flower motif:
I also finally uploaded some new submitted patterns to the Island Of Misfit Patterns - go check out the Socks section in particular!

You should know that this pattern is not a Japanese pattern. It was taken from Marianne Kinzel’s pattern “Springtime” from First Book of Modern Lace Knitting, published in 1953 and currently available from Dover books.
