    THE COLOUR change effect on this large shawl is achieved by working with two strands of yarn throughout, using one strand of orange and green together for the central ‘stripe’. Bronagh Miskelly’s design features a lovely diamond lace stitch pattern, and is knitted in John Arbon’s Alpaca 2-3ply yarn. This is a heavy laceweight with a soft drape and halo.
