Levana

If you’ve been captivated by the unique center-out structure of knitting, you’ll fall head over heels for the Levana pattern! This exquisite design harmoniously fuses a center-start square panel with an elegant crescent form, creating a stunning accessory that is both functional and beautiful. What sets Levana apart is not just its shape, but the delightful interplay of textures—featuring garter stitch as a lovely counterpoint to intricate beaded lace, one of my personal favorite combinations in knitting.

The Levana design begins with a beautifully crafted center-start square panel from which graceful wings emerge at both the right and left sides. To elevate its charm, the top and bottom edges of the center square, along with the tops of the side panels, are adorned with a delicate, beaded picot edging that adds a touch of whimsy. Additionally, the bottom edges of the side panels frame the central beaded lace section with a charming openwork lace pattern, designed to be both intuitive and enjoyable. Every time you encounter this lovely edge, whether on a right-side or wrong-side row, you will find comfort in its consistency: simply knit two, yarn over, and knit two together (k2, yo, k2tog).

For this stunning piece, you’ll need a total of 396 size 4 mm cube beads or 6/0 round seed beads, adding that extra sparkle and character to your project. Levana is not just a pattern; it’s a celebration of creativity and craftsmanship that will surely enhance your knitting repertoire.

This enchanting pattern is part of the exclusive Mezzaluna Collection, designed for those who appreciate exceptional quality and intricate details in their knitting projects. Whether you're a seasoned knitter or a dedicated beginner, Levana offers a journey of artistic expression that you won't want to miss! Ready to cast on?
