Listing is for the pattern (knitting instructions) only.
Named for the murmuring of the river, the Loreley rock on the Rhine shore is said to be home to a beautiful siren whose song distracts sailors and causes them to crash on the rocks below.
While knitting this bottom-up triangle shawl, you can lose yourself — safely! — in the seductive repetition of the geometric lace pattern that echoes across the body.
The lace evokes the stony face of its namesake, while the watery colorways of Lovely Merino Treat from Rosy Green Wool are reminiscent of a gentle river edged by a sandy shoreline.
