Mickeleens Path

Mickeleens Path

Mickeleens Path is a modular and closed hap, a sidekick to its older and bigger sister, the Bay Bulls cardigan. The Bird’s Eye lace body is worked separately in two pieces and then mitred stranded colourwork is worked flat to fill in the notches. A beautiful border finishes the body and showcases the Bird’s Eyes, then the two pieces are joined on both sides with a 3-needle BO to complete the closed hap. It is large enough to be worn as a cowl wrapped elegantly around your neck or open as a hap draped over your shoulders. A beautiful layer of warmth.

Mickeleens Path is pattern #6 of Landed, Volume 1: The Avalon, Timeless Lace and Stranded Knitting Patterns for the Adventurous Handknitter.
