The Fernanda Shawl

[Alaina]

I've made this shawl twice now, almost finished a 3rd.

 

I love this pattern with the colorways of Chroma Fingering yarn.

 

The purple is the Misty Morn colorway, and the green is the Seaweed colorway.  I am almost done with a 3rd shawl in the Smoothie colorway (pics coming soon)

The pattern can be found on Ravelry.

Very pretty Alaina. I very much like the way the stripes are directed.

Those are beautiful.

[Alaina]

Thanks everyone!  It's a fun pattern, and watching the colors come alive is magical with this yarn!

They are so very pretty.  Your work is very neat.  What size hook did you use with the Chroma Fingering yarn?  Thanks.  Janice

[Alaina]

Thanks Janice!

 

I used an I-hook, because it needs to be more "open" and lacey.

 

You would not normally use an I-hook with fingering weight yarn, although I guess it really depends on the nature of the project and what kind of gauge, drape, and texture you wish to achieve.

Thanks Holly!

I started one with worsted weight and it's bright yellow and sunny, so it's headed for a nursing home somewhere. It's such an easy pattern, too! Thanks so much, because this is fun.

Gorgeous! Love them.

[Alaina]

Glad you are enjoying it Becky.  And I know it will brighten someone's day at the nursing home!

 

Thanks Peggy and Belinda.

Lovely! I love how that yarn makes it look like there are shadows from the sun falling on it. Absolutely gorgeous!

[milney]

Hi again .. would I order two skeins of the Chroma fingering yarn?  Thanks!  Janice

So pretty!

[Alaina]

Thanks everyone!

 

Milney, it depends on how large you want the shawlette.

 

I've not been able to try the pattern using 2 fulls skeins of the fingering yet.  But the dimensions I provided are for 1 skein.

Thanks ..
