Knitting Plea

Oh help me, wonderful knitting friends, I'm trying to find a pattern.

I bought, back in September, a skein of laceweight cashmere, made by The Knitting Goddess from the wonderful Darlington yarn stall A Fine Yarn. Talking to the lovely proprietoress of the stall, she recommended a small Ishbel shawl, but also mentioned that there's a similiar lace shawl pattern out there, that's free. It takes the same amount of yarn, approx 350 metres. Does anyone know what that similiar shawl pattern might be?

TIA!

Might it be Travelling Woman?

I don't recognise the name of the pattern - but that is truly gorgeous. Have bookmarked and might use that anyway! Thanks!

It's lovely, isn't it? Definitely in my queue!

I've done a Rav search for free shawl patterns using 350m of lace or fingering weight yarn and the only one that seems to specify that exact meterage is Percy. Which is also gorgeous and may be just what I was looking for for the Nef Lace my friend gave me for Christmas...

I'll have to find it, but I was working on something that may work with that...aha, here you go. Except...oh, it's almost twice the amount of yarn you've got. Ah well, will hit "post comment" anyway because it's a cool pattern and you may yet find use for it...XD
