Introducing the stunning Crescent Shawl knitting pattern, an exquisite top-down design featuring a captivating elongated dropped stitch pattern complemented by shimmering beads, all set against a cozy garter stitch background. This shawl is perfect for knitters of all skill levels looking to create a beautiful accessory that showcases their talent. Available in two sizes, this pattern provides detailed line-by-line instructions, ensuring a seamless knitting experience for everyone. Notably, the pattern does not include any charts, making it accessible for those who prefer written directions.

We are excited to announce that the Daisy pattern underwent an update in June 2015, featuring new bead placements, a refreshed layout, and improved instructions for clarity and ease of use.

Materials Required:
To knit this exquisite shawl, you will need Schoppel Admiral Cat Print yarn (4ply; 75% superwash wool/25% nylon; 420m/459yds per 100g) in shade 2157. Depending on your chosen size, you will require either 1 skein for the small size or 2 skeins for the large size.
For the project, a 4mm (UK 8/US 6) circular needle with an 80cm (32in) length is recommended. Additionally, you will need 235 beads (size 8/0) of Debbie Abrahams seed beads in colour 49 Green, requiring either 1 bag for the small size or 2 bags for the large (500 beads each). A 0.75 mm crochet hook is necessary for bead placement if you choose to incorporate beads into your design.

Tension Details:
Achieve a tension of 13.5 stitches and 20.5 rows over 10cm/4in in the stitch pattern after blocking. While precise tension is not crucial, variations might impact the final dimensions of the shawl and the amount of yarn required for your project.
