Lindal Lyria is part of my Lindal Collection focusing on short-row knitting techniques and highlighting the way color uniquely pools within the shapes of this design, which is well suited to self-striping and gradient yarn. This design can be worn as a cowl, but is equally beautiful displayed as a centerpiece on a dining room table with a gorgeous flower arrangement (as shown in photos).

This pattern is also part of my Systema Naturae Collection and eBook. All of the designs from this collection are inspired by the beautiful organic shapes of seashells. Lyria is a name derived from the Ancient Greek Λύρα, or “lyre”, a type of stringed instrument and member of the lute family. The earliest known examples dating from c.2700 BCE in Mesopotamia. The shell is a genus of medium-sized sea snails in the family Volutidae.

Diagrams: This pattern comes with instruction along with a detailed vector diagram for both color placement and knitting order.

Sizing: The design measures app. 127cm (38”) in length and 27cm (11”) in width.

Floats: The nature of this design requires a lot of slipping stitches to move the design from the smallest shape to the largest shape. Because of this, you could need to sew in a number of ends after the piece is complete. Options for working with these ends is included in the pattern.
