In our Ravelry group, we mentioned that we were doing an (unofficial) KAL of the Haruni and Bitterroot Shawls, sparked by David’s Haruni in our last newsletter.  Both of these shawls are free patterns and are perfect for that next step in lace knitting. Haruni’s interesting border takes the advanced beginner past a simple triangular edging, while Bitterroot challenges the knitter to incorporate beads.
