Shapes
Rectangles
There is a lot you can put into a rectangle to make it quite interesting to knit. With a more direct result, satisfaction is certainly a key component.
The centres can be very becoming with pretty little designs, there are plenty of variations!
Effective and beautiful!

Equilibrium
EquilibriumThis is a very fine lace shawl, but don't let that stop you! The centre is especially pleasing to look at and to knit. This does require some grafting in the centre

Shetland Stars Rectangle
Stars RectangleThe magic of the large square shawl, is still to be found in the rectangle version. The signature stars and all its splendor, but in a perhaps more useful shape.

The Shetland Stars Square
Shetland StarsThere is such a story to this shawl, it has its own page.
Knit in original 1ply Shetland fine wool, this square has so much to offer. Stars, zigzags, hexagons...
Worth all tears, all time and every effort. -

The result is jawdropping and will get you many, MANY compliments.

Lund
LundSometimes, a triangle is so beautiful, you have to knit it twice! As a square. And that is what Debbie did with this Lund.
Made in hand dyed fine Shetland wool, this square is so attractive and it will keep you all warm and cozy.
The pattern comes with instructions for a triangle and a square. -
The Second One
The Second OneHere shown in 5 natural shades of Shetland wool.
This square is smaller than the Stars, however it is build up the same way. Very beautiful lace patterns and with the colours, wearing it will be really special.
Triangles
A triangle is rewarding to knit, in so many ways. Personally, I have only designed one shawl that's knit bottom - up, the majority is worked top - down.
A true benefit of a triangle is that it is not set in shape. It can be a central point, but the centre can be way off to one side too!
Or insert a part in the centre, like a Faroese shawl, to add interest.
Colours work always very well with a triangle, the lace can really benefit from a small splash!

Mrs. Miller (set)
Mrs. MillerAt first the pattern for the shawl and mittens were separate. With 1 skein, you can knit both and wear them together.
The mittens are lovely too! Use a fuller yarn for this coming fall. -
Across the Beach
Across The BeachThis is knit bottom-up. I had too, otherwise those gorgeous shells would not come out so well.
The original is not so large, it was knit in a fine grey silk.
Adjust the needlesize to make it bigger. -
Lund
LundThis shawl is worked in 3 directions and yet still pretty doable.
The centre is plain and the border is very pretty.
The edge is then added and makes it complete.
Give it a try! -
