This week I'm very happy to be highlighting a brand new shawl design by the talented Libby Jonson called Darling Dotty which uses two skeins of Skein Merino Silk Sport. This lovely feminine shawl features an all over dotty pattern that adds a subtle hint of texture which is finished with a sweet bobble border.
Darling Dotty is crescent shaped, which is so easy to wear and the light, drapey fabric makes a perfect transition piece as we head into autumn here in the southern hemisphere or spring in the north.
Darling Dotty is available as a Ravelry download, all information can be seen here. Libby has a wonderful blog called Truly Myrtle, she has also just started a new podcast under the same name. You can check out more of Libby's designs here.

Gosh, this is difficult – so many beautiful colour ways; I think I would go for Night Owl, though.

I would love to see this gorgeous shawl knitted in Boom Shankar, although it is really hard to choose just one colour.

Such a lovely, feminine design! I think it will look very elegant in Cocoa.

Love this pattern! Great piece to throw on in the Spring when it is a little cool instead of a jacket. Would be gorgeous in any Skein color! Think smokestack lightening would be my first choice!

I would love to make this using the sterling colourway, it looks like the perfect colour to show the lovely little dots and would be ideal for an evening on the town.
