Named in honor of Lynn Conway and her VLSI microelectronics design revolution (with Carver Mead). She forever changed computer science with this paradigm shift.

While I’ve focused on software for my entire career, the design offers a nod to her rapid prototyping process.

The stitch pattern is comprised of a simple five-stitch chain anchored with a single crochet, providing a rhythm to work and a standard stitch as the design foundation. To add interest, there are short intervals with picots.

Lorna’s Laces variegated and speckled Shepherd Sock yarns are highlighted in this shawl, and while designed in two similar hues, it looks forward to your experimentation.

The piece could be stunning all in the same colourway or even working the entire 13 row repeat before switching yarn. If you do mix it up, please remember that you may require additional yardage.
