Hi there!

I’ve always been in love with Moroccan architecture and design, so I tried to bring those elegant shapes into this shawl!

This is not a beginners’ pattern, but I’ve tried to add as much detail as possible and step-by-step pictures for every row. Keeping the stitch count is really important with this kind of project, so I’ve added the stitch count to every row as well.

Yarn & Hook size: For the step-by-step pictures I used Hobbii Friends 8/4 cotton with a 3mm hook, but you can use whatever yarn & hook size you like, as long as they match and you are happy with the resulting tension
