Garter Me This by Dana Fehrenbach
$5.00
Garter Me This Shawl name is a play on Batman’s”s nemesis ‘The Riddler” and his famous taunt, “Riddle Me This’. Garter ridges with a simple KFB increase with the yarn held double throughout. The pattern is designed to use up every inch of 3 skeins of Baah La Jolla if you decide to include the fringe.
This pattern is so versatile and can be made from any weight. Knit it up and truly follow the pattern in fingering weight, or make it larger using bigger yarns! It’s totally up to you! You are the master of your own shawl. Picture shown is just one example of how the colors can be interchanged because you can use the colors in any combination to make something that is uniquely you.
Kit includes pattern and selected yarn. For yarn winding services, click here. Please wash all of your skeins prior to starting your project to prevent color bleeding in the finished garment.
