I’ve been working on some Art Deco knits recently. For this project, I chose the Parelli Shawl design from the book Art Deco Knits: Creating a Hand-knit Wardrobe Inspired by the 1920s-1930s by Jemima Bicknell. The leafy pattern is classic and timeless. Knitting with laceweight yarn is challenging, but the fineness of the completed piece makes it worth all my time and effort. I’m currently working with Trinity 2ply from Townhouse Yarns for this shawl. Another project is a beanie for him, intended as a Christmas gift. I’m mixing and matching some leftover yarns that aren’t enough to create something if knitted individually.
