Chameleon Shawl in Greens


Chameleon Shawl in Greens

13 Feb - 20 Feb 2009

Made whilst on holiday in Dumfries & Galloway.

 

A wonderfully soft mohair shawl made using Argyll Chameleon Mohair in a mix of greens and yellows with touch of blue-green. Almost impossible to capture the colours on my mobile phone!

 

 

I made this whilst staying in a 'castle' or fortified manor house built in 1600, in Lowland Scotland. It kept me nice and warm in the evenings ... although the abundant quantities of whisky meant that I had to pull out 5 rows on more than one occasion when I spotted a mistake!

 

Yarn: 250g Argyll Chameleon Mohair

Hook: 8.00 mm

Pattern: Adapted from the Pineapple Shawl in Amazing Crochet Lace - see Amazon Link for more details - by adding an extra row of pineapples

Whisky: 3 bottles (Bladnoch 16yr, Glen Moray, Johnnie Walker Black Label) and between 3 people over 6 nights!
