“She’s mad, but she’s magic. There’s no lie in her fire.”
― Charles Bukowski

The Phlegethon is the river found in Greek Mythlogy leading to the underworld, also known as the river of fire. It also means “stream of fire” or a “fiery light”. The name for this shawl was inspired by both the colorway name (Fire Dreamer) and the fiery nature found in Dreamer Fibre Muses - their creativity cannot be tamed and their passion for color is unhinged.

This shawl is a top-down triangular asymmetrical shawl, with a border worked on the side at the same time as the body. Because the body is worked in simple garter stitch and the border is a simple eyelet pattern, it is a perfect fit for showing off your own handspun yarn.

The Dreamer Fibre Muse is the muse of self-expression, so let yours shine through the yarn you chose to pair up with this pattern!

This pattern is the sister design to the Icescape Shawl.
