Kleine Schwester

Kleine Schwester is the German term for “Little Sister”, and that’s just what this design is: The little sister of my Rheinlust shawl which was released in 2016.

Listing is for the pattern (knitting instructions) only.

I’m a fan of things that are easy to knit - when the day comes to an end, I enjoy relaxing on the sofa and keeping my hands busy without having to think a lot about what I do. Rheinlust, however, requires a little more concentration and over the past years, I’ve received many requests for a more beginner-friendly version… so, now there is one!

Enjoy the beautiful stitch pattern evoking the gentle waves of the river Rhine, while keeping things easy and relaxed.

With North Light Fibers Water Street DK, your Little Sister will stand out.
