  • Loreley by Melanie Berg [PDF]

    A beautiful collaboration with Rosy Green Wool, Melanie has designed Loreley a two colour shawl for their Lovely Merino Treat.

    Named for the river's murmuring, 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 colourways of Lovely Merino Treat from Rosy Green Wool are reminiscent of a gentle river edged by a sandy shoreline.
