This beautiful Dancing Dragonflies Shawl is a ‘must-try’ for beginners. The apparently intricate pattern of dragonflies, marked out in the Shawl, can be achieved using easy to master stitches. Photos of the techniques used for the special stitches are included for ease of reference, together with clearly written instructions. A beautiful Shawl can be made in a relatively short time, and would make a perfect ‘Handmade With Love’ gift for both young and old! This pattern would work with any weight of wool.

Exact gauge is not essential for this project. Be sure to check your gauge.
When you match the gauge in the pattern, your project should be the same size specified in the pattern; the materials in the pattern will be sufficient. If you find that, when making your swatch, that you need less stitches or rows to achieve a 4” square swatch, then you might try using a smaller hook size. If your swatch has more stitches or rows than the gauge of the pattern, you might try using a larger hook size.
