Pattern: Rococo Shawl by Lana Jois
Yarn: Quince Phoebe in the Mars Colorway
Needles: Size 7 circs
I can finally publish pictures of the shawl I got to test knit starting back in March. It was just published in Quince and Co’s Shawls 2020 on the 11th. I happened to notice the test knit note in Quince’s Ravelry group just ahead of when the great lockdown began, so I ended up having some good time to devote to this, and finished it back on April 14th. It was a fun knit – it’s a false cable, so no extra needle required. The pattern is still complicated enough to keep it interesting.
The yarn is really nice and squishy, and I like how it’s lightly variegated, though I could see that being a problem depending on exactly how much consistency you wanted in the final fabric. It was still cool enough when I finished this that I got some nice wear out of it before putting it away for the season.
