PROMOTION UPDATE & EXTENSION
Due to a technical setup delay on my end, the 20% release discount was not properly active for the first few hours. I am very sorry for any inconvenience this caused!

The promotion is now fully active, and to make up for the lost time, I have extended the sale until October 7, 23:59 JST!

Sasa Pointed Shawl is an elegant crochet shawl inspired by the graceful shape of sasa (bamboo leaves), featuring distinctively pointed tips at both ends.

Features

• Unique Shape: Designed to taper elegantly into sharp points at both ends, beautifully mimicking the silhouette of a bamboo leaf.

• Versatile Styling: Carefully designed in three distinct sizes, allowing you to wear it as a compact neckpiece, an everyday scarf, or a comforting wrap.

• Airy Texture: Features a delicate, breathable stitch pattern that drapes perfectly and highlights the beautiful color variations of hand-dyed yarn.

• Customizable Size: While this pattern is written for 3 specific sizes (S, M, L), it is easily adjustable! You can easily change the width and length by simply adjusting the number of repeat rows for the increase, straight, and decrease sections. It’s a perfect stash-buster project to use up whatever yardage you have!
