Red Freckles Shawl – Romi Hill

“Red Freckles is Amy’s alter ego. Because who can resist that name? Certainly not I. The pun continues with a variation of “Sunspots” from Barbara Walker’s fantastic stitch books, modified to work as a knitted on edging. Red Freckles is just a bit more daring than its alter-ego Amy. It begins the same way, with a lovely sedate grey, but after that, the top portion loses its way a little in the short rows, worked with a brilliant orange stripe. And because I so deeply love that sunspots pattern I modified, Red Freckles also sports spots. In brilliant orange they glow beautifully!”
