Dragon's Flight
Wrap yourself in lacy dragon wings!
Pattern is fully charted and written.
There are three sizes: small, medium, and large. These sizes refer to the number of stitches rather than size of finished shawl. You may use whatever yarn you like. If you follow the instructions as written your shawl will be about as wide as your arms from finger-tip to finger-tip no matter what yarn you choose. The pattern is fully adjustable if you want a very large shawl or a small shoulder shawl adjust accordingly. You will need between 600-1400 yards of yarn depending on the weight of yarn you choose and the size you choose to knit.
Choose any yarn you like. Your yarn should have a high wool content so that you can block it. It should also be fairly solid colored so you don’t hide the lace pattern with multicolored yarn.
Choose a needle 2-3 sizes larger than suggested for your choice of yarn to begin with. Gauge is not important in this project so choose a needle that gives you a pleasing fabric with your chosen yarn.
This is a complicated pattern and it requires close attention to detail, and most likely the ability to recognize mistakes and fix mistakes a few rows back. If you don’t think you are ready for this try Dragon’s Rest
