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.

STARDUNES is an asymmetric triangular shawl knitted from side to side. This relief pattern makes very expressive stars, which flow seamlessly through the surface of the shawl and make impression of dunes.
This is an adjustable shawl, which could be longer or shorter to the taste of the knitter, just making as many repeats as desired. The pattern contains 14 stitches and 16 rows which are repeated over and over. The simplicity of the pattern allows to memorize it easily and literally roll with the knitting. It could be a great project for beginners and give a great confidence to make something advanced.
This shawl is a combination of simplicity and elegance just need appropriate yarn for appropriate season - wool for colder seasons and silk, cotton or other modern yarns for warmer seasons.
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.
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 420 - 450 yards
Shawl with strait edges 60 x 50 inch - 600 - 630 yards.
