and so are you
you all in the mood for a giveaway? i am! woo hoo! i figured it was about time we had a knitting related giveaway again so when rose beck of rosy posy designs offered up her 5 gorgeous patterns from the "be mine collection" i said you betcha! i love rose's designs and i heart me a shawl. i also adore knitting lace. i think that a wrap/shawl is a timeless addition to any wardrobe for any age and also a beautiful heirloom to pass on through the generations. i always feel as if the shawls tell a story or a tale with the way the stitches flow. sort of like each row is a new sentence, another layer that weaves a tale. it's a beautiful piece of shaped artwork and rose becks designs don't disappoint. just look at the pleated texture along the bottom of the shawl "and so are you" shown above and below - love it!!!
the be mine collection consists of 5 shawlettes that rose designed to be both simple and sweet. rose states that the "collection celebrates the art of subtle romance with simple aesthetic and ease of execution". rose wanted a collection where "simplicity was key". she wanted a look that was "romantic but practical, feminine but not too frilly." she brings in that touch of romance to her designs by having drawn her inspiration for the shawls from florals. sounds like my kind of shawl! the nice thing with roses pattern are that they are easily adaptable. they are all worked from the top down to allow easy customization for sizing and fit.
