A modern-style Pi shawl. This solar system exploration starts with a fun seamless cast-on and it expands ever outward in a circular shape. The planets are worked in eyelet bands around star lace motifs and increases. If you can knit, knit 2 together, yarn over, and purl, this shawl is for you. It brings the sparkle and shine, complete with a big bang finish!
