A kit to make Aisling; a beautiful knitted shawl by Justyna Lorkowska. Kit includes a skein in each colour of Titus 4ply, a download code for the pattern and an ECY cotton project bag.

Justyna designed this shawl to celebrate visiting Edinburgh Yarn Festival.. we both wore our shawls there and they were much admired, and lovely to wear. Being a generously sized crescent shape, this shawl works both worn wrapped cosily around the neck, and draped around the shoulders. 

Aisling is a “dream” or “vision”. Make it your dream too. <3

The shawl begins at the center and is worked outwards to border. There are two yarn-over increases in every row which create a long banana-like shape. The shawl is worked in Stockinette stitch with eyelets, which resemble raindrops, interrupted by Garter stripes. The lacy cabled border is worked sideways at the end and attached to the body by means of simple decreases and slipped stitches.
The sample shawl is worked in two contrasting colors but would look equally beautiful when knit in just one.
