camhanaich is gaelic for “early morning light” or, more directly, “dawn.” allow the many little lace-and-cable suns covering the body of this shawl to let the light peek through in another way. the cables keep the fabric nice and dense despite the lace, making this a warm and cozy shawl. feel free to add more depth to it by adding extra garter rows to the border. perfect for early mornings clutching hot mugs of coffee while you watch the sun rise!

needles: US 7 (4.5mm) 32” (80cm) circular needles, or size needed to obtain gauge

sample shown uses harrisville designs’ nightshades (80% american cormo/20% american wool, 250 yards [229 metres], 100g) x 3 skeins in street light

*note: due to the lofty nature of the suggested yarn, it’s a good idea to grab an extra skein just to be on the safe side so you don’t have to play yarn chicken. use any leftovers for a pair of fingerless mitts or a cute hat!
