I love seeing your projects, tag @winterberryknits in your Instagram photos.

One summer morning I was contemplating what to do with the beautiful yarn sitting on my lap. Does your yarn ever speak to you? Mine seems to speak at times. “Make a dragon.”

Out of my imaginings, The Radiant Dragon evolved. The stockinette field is accented by the expanding eyelets which radiate from the edge of each garter stitch spike. This gives a little mind stimulation to the simplicity of the other rows. Enjoy!

WARNING: this pattern can become addicting. My testers (and I) have knit multiple shawls. The design fits many yarns: gradient, stripes, variegated, and solids. Any weight yarn goes - just adjust your needles to the yarn you’ve chosen. It’s a wonderful “go to” pattern.

Skills: knit, purl, kfb, yo, k2tog, bind off

This pattern has been test knit for accuracy.
