Ventana

I love this pattern! It isn't that difficult but looks amazing. I made the first version from an alpaca yarn, this time I used Rowan Calmer, which is being discontinued. I wanted to make something out of Calmer for awhile, and had started a cropped lace cardigan. But I got stuck on the fronts, so I ripped out the back and sleeves and turned it into this shawlette/scarf.

Calmer has great stitch definition and a subtle stretch that makes it easy to knit. I haven't blocked it yet or woven in the ends, but you can see the lace pattern already.
