This shawl is inspired by the Delta Shield worn by the crews of Federation starships -- wear it to explore new galaxies, or just to boldly go wherever your day takes you. It’s perfect for showing off the gorgeous Star-Trek-inspired colorways of Wild Hare Pinnacle Sock exclusively dyed for StevenBe. A version for DK weight is also available: Prime Directive DK. Special DK launch offer: buy one version, get the other half off!

Finished size: 76” wingspan, 20” center spine

Yarn requirements:
Color A -- 430 yards of a variegated or solid colorway
Color B -- 160 yards of a contrasting solid

Note: you can adapt the pattern for different yardages of Color A by knitting the short rows at the edges of the wings with more or fewer stitches in between turns.
