Three Orenburg Shawls to Knit
from the Gossamer Webs
Design Collection
By Galina Khmeleva
|
For over three hundred years, knitters from the Orenburg region of Russia
have been creating gossamer-style lace shawls and scarves from a series of
basic elements and patterns handed down from generation to generation. In
the hopes of preserving this indigenous textile art form, Galina Khmeleva
has worked with these talented craftspeople to chart these unique knitted
lace masterpieces. The results presented here provide the opportunity for
one to create their very own heirloom Orenburg-style shawl or scarf.
