Lightning Thief
ETA: knitCompanion set-ups can be purchased (in the knitCompanion store) for those who like to use knitCompanion, but do not wish to set up their own charts.
Lighting Thief is a crescent shawl worked from the top down without short rows. The patterning is only on the right side with rest row on the wrong side. This is an easy pattern to memorize, interesting to knit with stunning result. Perfect pattern to relax after the Christmas and New Year hectic preparation.
Pattern includes charts and row by row written directions. If you would like to add beads to your shawl, instructions are included on where to place the beads.
