Dragonwise is a wide triangular shawl, knit from the top down, with a deep, dragon scale inspired lace border. Add beads (or don’t) for the perfect amount of sparkle..!

Written instructions, except for the lace section which is charted only.

The size can easily be customized by making the stockinette section smaller or larger.

Sample shawl 575m/629 yards The Knitting Goddess 4ply Alpaca, Silk & Cashmere (fingering/4ply weight, 70% alpaca, 20% silk, 10% cashmere), wingspan 160cm/63” and 65cm/26” deep at centre spine after blocking.

Sample shawl 563m/616 yards Malabrigo Yarn Sock (fingering/4ply weight, 100% merino), wingspan 175cm/69” and 65cm/26” deep after blocking.

Smaller sample shawl 375m/411 yards The Knitting Goddess SparkLynne 4ply (fingering/4ply weight, 75% merino, 20% nylon, 5% metallic), wingspan 145cm/57” and 53cm/21” deep after blocking.

This shawl would look great in lace weight yarn as well.

Beads (optional): 145 size 6/0 TOHO seed beads.

Dragon scale lace pattern inspired by Denise Plourde’s Lacy Dragon Small Scale Washcloth. A very heartfelt thank you to Denise for kindly and generously allowing me to adapt her design into this shawl!

Dragonwise är en vid triangelformad sjal, stickad uppifrån ner, med en bred drakfjällsinspirerad spetskant. Lagom mycket lyx, med eller utan instickade glaspärlor!

Beskrivningen är i textform, förutom spetsdelen som är endast diagram.

Storleken kan lätt anpassas genom att den slätstickade mittendelen görs mindre eller större.

Exempelsjal: 575 m/629 yards The Knitting Goddess 4ply Alpaca, Silk & Cashmere (fingering/4ply weight, 70% alpacka, 20% silke, 10% kashmir), vingbredd 160 cm/63” och 65 cm/26” djup i mitten efter blockning.

Exempelsjal: 563 m/616 yards Malabrigo Yarn Sock (fingering/4ply weight, 100% merino), vingbredd 175 cm/69” och 65 cm/26” djup efter blocking.

Den här sjalen skulle vara jättefin i tunnare garn (lace weight) också.
