Pordum

The stitch pattern of this delightful shawlette is inspired by the striking beauty of thistles, echoing the intricate design found in nature. The Latin name for the Scottish Thistle is Onopordum, and from this, we derive the name Pordum, a charming abbreviation that captures its essence. Just like my other popular pattern, Heddle, Pordum is crafted as a simple, modular top-down shawlette, allowing you the creative freedom to customize your project. The pattern repeat is flexible, enabling you to work it any number of times, so you can easily adjust the length based on the quantity of yarn you have on hand.

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced knitter, the Pordum shawlette is a fantastic project that celebrates the beauty of thistle-inspired design while offering a satisfying knitting experience.
