Spring 2024 Elizabeth Smith: Milo Capsule Collection
As the winter ground begins to slowly defrost, the first signs of Spring start to emerge. Colorful crocus blossoms, bright daffodil gradients and fresh foliage – all signs of a new beginning and winter’s end. This was the inspiration behind Elizabeth Smith’s mini Milo collection - 3 layering pieces all knit in the beautiful wool/linen blend from Manos del Uruguay. Each piece is created with simple knitting techniques and features floral-inspired eyelet stitch motifs and monochromatic colorblocking in different shades of Spring.
Construction
This shawl is worked from the center of the upper edge downwards. The stockinette and eyelet sections are shaped with m1 increases on each side of the center “spine” stitch and yarnover increases inside the 2-stitch side borders. The broken-rib trim continues the shaping with m1 increases.
