Curious Handmade Kelso PDF

Curious Handmade’s Kelso takes its name from a charming Scottish border town which lies nestled in the confluence of the Tweed and Teviot rivers. Kelso is a lovely shawl knit in Road to China Light which captures the different textures of river and town, with wonderful three-colored stripes, flickering eyelets, and simple lace. This elongated accessory is knit from the top down with increases made at the edges. The Fibre Co. Road to China Light is an incredibly soft blend of baby alpaca, cashmere, camel, and silk. The silk adds the slightest hint of luster to the yarn, and the colors are incredible. The lace pattern is charted and written out.
