Lightning Ray

Lightning Ray Shawl is an addictive knitting project that you'll love. This generously sized shawl is not only easy to remember but also quick to work up, making it perfect for knitters of all skill levels. While the sample showcases a beautiful effect using a double-stranded yarn with two contrasting shades, you can achieve the same stunning directional look with a single strand of lace weight or fine fingering weight yarn. This pattern truly embodies a “choose your own adventure” style, allowing you to customize your experience.

Part of the exquisite LINEAR collection, this pattern showcases a directional, steady growth design that acts as a blank canvas for your creativity. Whether you opt for solid, heathered, semi-solid, or a double-stranded approach, you will undoubtedly enjoy wearing your unique creation and turning heads wherever you go.
