Dancing Diamonds is a fingering (4ply) shawl that features 2 colours of yarn. Each colour takes turns leading through short sections of texture, waves, and diamond lace that will keep you engaged all the way throughout the knit. The waves bring movement to the diamonds and for a dramatic finish, there is a decorative scalloped border to complete the dance.

This pattern contains full written instructions with stitch counts, charts, and a detailed tick-sheet.

Yarn substitution: Fingering weight (4ply) yarns with approx. 400m/437yd per 100g/3.5oz are best for similar results.

Tension/Gauge
20 sts and 40 rows per 10cm (4”) square over moss stitch after blocking.

Approx. 46cm (18”) deep at centre (to tip of scallop) x 162cm (64”) wide after blocking.
