A circular shawl using traditional Shetland patterns, in a very non-traditional colour.

Suitable for knitters with some lace experience, Shetland Skies uses the ‘Pi’ method popularized by Elizabeth Zimmerman.

A single skein of sock yarn makes a shawl about 32 inches/80 cm in diameter; a second skein adds about 10 inches/25 cm to that.

This would be equally wonderful in a DK or heavier yarn - just use larger needles.
