Cygnets “Boho spirit” yarn in shade Festival, creates this striking shawl.
We start with an i-cord cast on. The i-cord that runs down the sides of the shawl is knit into the pattern as you knit a stocking stitch and reverse stocking stitch fabric. A centre double decrease gradually moves from centre shawl to the outside edge creating the shawls shape. Steam blocking gives lots of drape.
