Yvonne's Wings

**Yvonne’s Wings - A Lace Faroese Shawl in Loving Memory of Yvonne Eyer (RedHatKnitter on Ravelry)** Yvonne Eyer, lovingly known as RedHatKnitter on Ravelry, was an incredible friend and vital part of my knitting journey. Our paths crossed a few years ago when she began test knitting my patterns. Her honest feedback and meticulous attention to detail quickly made her an essential contributor to my design process. What started as a collaborator relationship blossomed into a deep friendship, as we often shared not just knitting ideas but also personal stories. I affectionately considered her my adopted knitting mum. The day we vowed to meet in person remains a cherished memory, and it breaks my heart to think of our unfulfilled plans. Yvonne became a key influence in my life, integral to my creative process, just like my beloved needles and luxurious yarns. Imagining my design work without her support and insights feels impossible. Though Yvonne is no longer with us physically, I know her spirit will continue to accompany me in every stitch I create. She has gifted me, and countless others, an abundance of inspiration and love, and her memory will forever be woven into my knitting. As I’ve expressed before, I hold onto the hope that she is now knitting among the angels, as she surely is an angel herself. Yvonne had a special fondness for lace, and I recall her expressing how much she adored the Faroese shawl shape. This pattern, Yvonne’s Wings, is a top-down lace Faroese shawl designed with intricate beadwork to honor her legacy and celebrate her love for knitting. This stunning shawl will be a beautiful addition to your collection, and as you create it, may it remind you of the passion and joy that knitting brings into our lives. Let Yvonne’s Wings be a heartfelt tribute to not only Yvonne but to every knitter who finds solace and community within this craft. With every stitch, may you feel the warmth of friendship and the enduring spirit of those we cherish. Download this timeless pattern and embark on a knitting journey that celebrates love, creativity, and the incredible bond we share as knitters.
