Capture the joy of dancing light with every stitch you knit. Ripple Dancer is a light crescent shawl in two sizes; the small version is perfect for covering your shoulders on warmer days and you’ll love throwing on the larger one as the evening cools.

A relaxing and quick knit, Ripple Dancer undulates to its edge with a textured geometric pattern and finishes with a sweet peaked border, all intended to remind you of the sparkles of light reflected from cool water on the warmest and most relaxing of summer days.

The top edge of Ripple Dancer gently rolls inwards, softening the top of your shawl.

The pattern includes written & charted instructions and is perfect for experienced knitters and keen beginners.
