Elizabeth Taylor, in her iconic role as Cleopatra, drips from head to toe with the most astounding gold costume - her phoenix shawl was a Hollywood work of art. Inspired by Liz’s shawl, Goldwing is more wearable but will still sit like the grandest riches on your shoulders. Worked from tip to tip Goldwing’s approachable construction and comfortable versatility will make you feel like a queen. Choose between the small or large size utilising one or two skeins of fingering weight yarn. Choose a yarn with sparkles for extra glamour or something special for a piece to treasure.
Choose between a small or large (1 or 2 skein project) This knits up quickly, a perfect project for an advanced beginner knitter, with simple lace and shaping to keep it interesting.
