#Gaia_shawl

This shawl is origianlly knitted in coorporation with my mother. Together we have agreed on the design elements, and just because the shawl was for my mother, the name Gaia fits perfect! Gaia means the godess of the earth, and symboizes the circle of life. The shawl is worked as a half circle and is worked from the bottom and up, back and forth. First you knit the beautifull edge, which reminds me of seashells, the stockinette stitch before the lace part. The shawl is for the experienced knitter, because of the lace part but the pattern is well written and easy to follow.
