Crocus
The beautiful warm colours of spring crocuses are featured in this delicate floral design. It has quickly become one of my favourites.
The Crocus shawl is knitted from the top down and formed by two triangles separated by a 6-stitch center panel. The stitch pattern in the body of the shawl transitions into a decorative crescent panel on the edging. The size of the shawl is easy to adapt with the help of the included customization notes.
The pattern is both fully written and charted with bead placement clearly indicated. There will also be suggestions for the bind off options, including a picot bind off methods.
RECOMMENDED YARN: suitable for this project are natural fiber yarns or yarns with a minimum synthetic content which can be blocked. This shawl looks great in both solid or gradient colors, either in lace or light fingering weight yarn.
Note! The needle sizes and yarn weights listed here are only suggestions. Please use needles suited for your yarn to create a pleasing fabric – your fabric should not be too dense and should have a good drape.

GAUGE: 24 sts x 24 rows = 10 cm (4”), square in stockinette st, measured after wet blocking
