………………………………………………………………………

The way this cozy crescent shawl wraps around your shoulders inspired me to find a name that suited both the warmth of friendship and days spent wrapped up in another world. In Dealing With Dragons, the main character Cimorene befriends Alianora and together they solve a series of problems with only materials they have on hand. Inspired by this clever pair, you can knit your shawl with any single skein of fingering, sport, or DK weight yarn you have nearby.

Like these rebellious princesses, you’re in charge of your journey through this pattern path -- in size, weight, and sparkle. When your knitting journey is complete, style with a shawl pin to add versatility and keep your piece in place no matter where your next adventure takes you!
