Sidere

Introducing Sidere, a stunning asymmetrical shawl that captures the beauty of starlight—the elegant name derived from the Latin word "Sidere". This lightweight shawl is crafted from the exquisite Starbright yarn by Luna Grey Fiber Arts, making it a perfect addition to your knitting collection. Designed to be knit from the top down, Sidere starts with just a few stitches, allowing knitters of all levels to create this enchanting piece with ease.

What makes Sidere truly unique is its crescent shape, achieved through strategic increases placed in every row. Its eye-catching asymmetry arises from short rows worked in Stockinette stitch, beautifully contrasted between bands of a simple yet effective textured stitch pattern. The texture mimics the sparkle of stars converging at one end of the shawl, adding depth and dimension to this airy accessory. To complete the design, a lovely picot bind-off echoes the same star-like texture at the shawl’s edge, enhancing its romantic appeal.

Sidere is versatile and can be styled as a chic shawl or a distinctive scarf, making it an ideal garment for any occasion. Whether draped around your shoulders or wrapped around your neck, this piece is sure to draw admiration wherever you go.

The sample featured in this pattern is crafted with the luxurious Luna Grey Fiber Arts Starbright yarn, composed of 55% Superwash Bluefaced Leicester and 45% Silk, ensuring both comfort and elegance.
