Finally, Blyth is published! Blyth is the first shawl I designed for The Knitter and it is published on the latest issue, 41. I was so excited when the deputy editor Rosee invited me to design a shawl for their magazine last year. Things went so smoothly and they sent me a skein of beautiful fingering sock yarn that dyed by I knit or dye. They probably could have read my mind because the colorway is drop dead gorgeous and I love the name of it too, ship of promises!
It is rather a challenging and fun knit. I combined 3 beautiful lace patterns for this shawl and the first lace pattern at the edging is an interesting knit. I have been waiting for this magazine since weeks ago. It is so exciting to see my first ever design being published on a magazine. I downloaded a digital copy from Apple application store and I showed it around to my family and friends. They are so proud of me and can’t believe I actually make my hobby into something bigger.
I am really thankful for this given opportunity and I definitely hope to have more chance to have my patterns published! Life is good!
Congratulations, Kitman! Your new pattern is gorgeous!
I’m so glad I found your blog! I LOVE your Damask shawl! Do you think it could be done successfully in laceweight on smaller needles?
Hi,
There are some knitters had made Damask with laceweight and smaller needle. Probably you can refer to the project pages at Ravelry to find out more ideas about this! 🙂
Wonderful pattern
It’s really beautiful!!!! Well done and congratulations.
Congratulations! The shawl is stunning and I love the name, so delightful.
