Rainshine

Welcome to our delightful pattern inspired by nature's beauty! As a proudly 'glass half-full' family, we've always cherished the shafts of light that pierce through dark clouds, affectionately calling them 'Angel’s Fingers' or 'Rainshine.' This ultra-dramatic shawl features stunning points along its edges, glistening with beads, which evoke the image of those magical Angel’s Fingers, shimmering and reaching toward the ground.

This beautifully crafted crescent-shaped shawl is designed to be knitted using laceweight yarn, allowing you to achieve a fine, open lacework with beads that float like delicate raindrops throughout the fabric. While this pattern shines in laceweight, you have the option to use fingering weight yarn as well, though it will yield a less lacy effect. The shawl’s design incorporates a smooth stocking stitch body along with a repeatable lace section, offering you the versatility to customize your shawl's size and aesthetic to perfectly suit your preferences.

The shawl featured in this pattern has been knit as directed and blocked aggressively to showcase its stunning lace detail. Additionally, throughout the pattern, you'll find suggestions for enlarging or reducing the size of your shawl, giving you the freedom to tailor it to your liking. For those seeking extra drama, the option to add two additional rows is included to heighten the visual impact of your creation.

This knitting pattern includes both clear charts and detailed written instructions, making it accessible for knitters of various skill levels. Embrace the beauty of Angel’s Fingers in your own knitting project and create a versatile and eye-catching shawl that can be cherished for years to come. Perfect for gifting or keeping for yourself, this shawl is a delightful addition to any wardrobe.
