Raveling Leaves Shawl- Knitted (intermediate)

This lovely old Shetland pattern has had more than one name. It is an 18 stitch repeat plus 2 and a pleasure to knit. It can be knit in fingering on US #6 needles or in lace weight on #3 or 4. A repeat of five with 400yd skein in fingering will give you a 42” x 15” scarf. Done in lace weight approximately 500 yards for the same dimensions. Use a fine grade of yarn, #1, <20μm or #2, 20 — 22.9 μm if this is to be worn next to the skin. Pattern by Thi Miller.
