• Product description

  Known for geometric designs like Maurits (Wool People 8), Andrea Rangel returns to a form she previously explored with Tree Rings (Wool People 6), the classic pi shawl as pioneered by Elizabeth Zimmermann.

  
  Arbre is worked in Loft from the center out in five simple but effective coordinating lace motifs. The spidery edging is knitted on at the end, and all sections of the shawl can be worked from written directions or charts.

  
  If your personal style doesn’t run to lace on a dramatic scale, this timeless circular design also makes an elegant lap blanket to drape over the couch or an heirloom for a new baby.

  Designer: Andrea Rangel

  Collection: Wool People, Volume 9

  Current Pattern: v2.0

  20 July 2015: 

  Version 2.0 On Page 6, under Attach lace Edging, the beginning of the the third paragraph as been corrected to read: “With working yarn, knit to end. Work Row 1 of Edging Chart (a WS row), or work from written instructions as given below, joining edging to body of shawl at the end of every WS row by purling the last stitch of edging together with the next live stitch from the body of the shawl. On RS rows, always slip the first stitch purlwise with yarn in back.”
