VELUMA

Veluma Shawl – a lace knitting pattern

The Veluma shawl is a knitting pattern designed to enjoy both the process and the final result. A design that flows smoothly, is easy to understand from the very beginning, and leaves room to knit at a relaxed pace. Inspired by quietly knitted gifts —those made with care and given almost like a secret— Veluma takes its name from velum, Latin for “veil”: something that covers, protects, or subtly reveals.

It is a shawl that grows naturally, revealing its shape row by row, creating that gentle waviness along the sides, where lace details and bobbles are worked.

✔️ Wavy lace sections and bobbles that add texture and movement.
