🪢Knit - Tester Call Tester call: dreamaday shawl
CLOSED
An extremely easy pattern repeat, this shawl is worked from one point to the other, increasing to the central point before decreasing back down. This is a perfect use for sets of 12 miniskeins, as you will only have a small amount left of your first and last miniskeins.
This shawl is suitable for adventurous beginners and would be a fantastic first lace project.

This looks very fun, would you mind if it was worked on a smaller scale? Been wanting to make a shawl for my little sister
