The other day Candy requested the shawl pattern that I had written years ago using Berroco Suede. I had long forgotten the pattern and had to search the files of an old computer to find it for her. I didn't think much more about it until we started receiving the new yarns by Lucci and I thought about how pretty they would be knitted or crocheted into a light summer shawl and my old shawl pattern would fill the bill. The next hard decision was deciding which new yarn to use. After much deliberation, I decided to go with Lucatape. Using size 17 needles, the shawl knitted up in no time. Each hank of Lucatape contains 110 yards and retails for $24. Only one hank is needed for the shawl and the pattern is free with purchase.
