Dancing Skies Shawl
This lovely hand dyed yarn beautifully captures the colours of the northern lights dancing against a dark sky. With a simple combination of garter stitch and yarn overs these pretty colours get to dance across the dark background of this easy crescent-shaped shawl. It is worked from the top down with only knit stitches, yarn overs, and increase stitches, making it a quick and easy project.
This pattern was originally designed in collaboration with Hilori’s Magical Yarnorium as part of the Cross Country Canada Road Trip KAL. The pattern, and the colourway Dancing Skies, represent Canada’s Northwest Territories. See also: Lichen, Berries and Moss.
IMPORTANT NOTE: the pattern uses all 407 yards of yarn. If you’re not knitting at the same gauge or think you might need more yarn it’s a good idea to have a second skein on hand.
Pattern includes list of abbreviations, diagram, and written instructions.
Finished measurements: Approximately 20 inches (51 cm) deep at middle point and 70 inches (178 cm) long across the top edge, blocked.
Skills required: increasing, working and then dropping multiple yarn overs, blocking. Stitches used: k, kfb, M1L, M1R, yo.
