Choose three of my designs, and pay only for two! Make sure to put all three patterns in your shopping basket before you check out.

Gentle Twist is a crescent shawl, knitted from side to side.
The size of the shawl is adjustable, it could be longer or shorter by making less or more repetitions of the pattern. The simplicity of the pattern and charming result of the finished shawl give the satisfaction to any knitter.
Everybody has own favorite yarn, the pattern should be only one of the tools to execute your visions. I would suggest - choose something you already like or something you never tried, but wanted to.
For this particular shawl it was used Debbie Bliss Eco Baby - it drapes well, it serves great purpose for accessories in warmer climate (it does not warm your shoulders).
To the taste of the knitter, it could be a small shawlette with scallops along the edge. Or, it could be a big shawl without pointy edges, which would drape nicely and make great cozy companion for cool seasons. Either way it is a beautiful and the same time simple pattern.
75 inch x 17 inch shawlette with pointy edges would require approximately 500 - 520 yards

The lace directions are charted and written.
