Atreides

Introducing the Atreides Crescent Shawl: a stunning and unique shawl designed to evoke the image of a soaring eagle in flight. This crescent-shaped shawl features innovative shoulder shaping, ensuring that it sits beautifully on your shoulders no matter how you wear it. The Atreides pattern is available in both small and large sizes, making it perfect for knitters of all skill levels who want to create a fashionable accessory.

The Atreides Shawl is specifically designed to showcase hand-painted sock or fingering yarns, particularly those with a medium level of variegation. However, adventurous knitters can experiment with highly variegated yarns at their own risk—who knows? It might turn out to look absolutely amazing! The versatile design allows the larger size to be styled "bandit" style, or with the long ends curling gracefully from your shoulder, creating a chic and sophisticated look.

Our comprehensive instructions incorporate both written directions and charted patterns, including a lace panel provided exclusively in chart form. Please note that this pattern is not suited for mindless knitting; the construction techniques and some unique stitch marker methods require intermediate to experienced knitting skills. The pattern features a variety of stitches, including single decreases on both the right side (RS) and wrong side (WS), as well as double decreases on the wrong side. But don't let this intimidate you! Once you become familiar with the lace work, it flows smoothly, allowing you to create a beautiful finished piece.

Whether you're looking to challenge yourself with new techniques or simply want to create a beautiful accessory, the Atreides Crescent Shawl is sure to impress. Don't miss out on the opportunity to add this stunning shawl pattern to your collection—perfect for knitters seeking to elevate their skills and wear something truly unique!
