Loop - Aureate Shawl
We couldn't be more thrilled with this collabloration between Lesley Anne Robinson of KnitGrafitti and Loop!
Designed by Lesley Anne Robinson for Loop London
Metallic and Reflective, Aureate is an asymmetrical triangle shawl, knit flat from tip to edge using garter stitch, two-colour brioche stitch, and a garter mesh lace stitch. 4 stitches are increased in the centre every sixth row on the Main Side in the Brioche sections, along with short row arrow-shaped wedges, to create a distinct asymmetrical shape. As the shawl grows, the Brioche sections get smaller, as the accent wedges become larger until casting off.
