Lysen shawl

Introducing the Lysen Crescent Shawl, a beautifully designed shawl that elegantly drapes around your shoulders, making it a perfect accessory for any occasion. This crescent-shaped shawl combines both comfort and style, making it an essential addition to your handmade wardrobe.

Begin your knitting journey with the intricate lace edge at the bottom, which sets the stage for the rest of the shawl. Once the lace is completed, you’ll work the shawl from the bottom up, allowing you to see your progress as you knit. For those interested in a stunning 2-color design, you can create a captivating visual contrast by knitting the lace edge in one color and then picking up stitches along the lace edge with a second contrasting color to complete the shawl.

The Lysen pattern is designed to accommodate various sizes, featuring instructions for small, medium, and large shawls. The width at the top edge measures a generous 150 (190, 240) centimeters, while the height or depth reaches 45 (55, 60) centimeters, ensuring a lovely fit for everyone.

This knitting pattern is tailored for knitters who are confident in following both written instructions and charts, along with performing increases and decreases. You'll find a well-balanced mix of detailed written directions and helpful charts to guide you throughout the knitting process.

You'll need a yarn with an approximate yardage of 300 meters per 100 grams to create the Lysen Crescent Shawl. The pattern is beautifully showcased in hand-dyed (natural dye) 100% merino wool from Chester Wool Company, offering unparalleled softness and a luxurious finish.

Please note that this pattern does not include finished items, yarn, or other materials; it is purely for your knitting pleasure. Dive into this delightful project, and create a stunning shawl that showcases your unique style!
