Product Details

Anisoptera Crescent Shawl When I started dreaming about this collection, I could picture perfectly the shawl I wanted - with dragonflies in flight along the border. It took awhile in the making to pick (and design some of my own) lace patterns to get the look I was after. I hope you’re as pleased with the effect as I am. The name, Anisoptera, comes from the scientific name for dragonflies.

This shawl features short rows to shape the crescent shawl body, followed by three stacking lace patterns which continue the gradual crescent shape at the edges through gradual increases, framed with dragonfly wings. Some of the lace patterns are Shetland-inspired and feature lace on both sides (RS and WS rows). The full pattern collection and book will have a tutorial covering yarn overs on the WS of your work - how to make them and how to work them on the next row.

Shown in Sylvan Tiger Yarns Methera Lace in Damsel.

Finished Measurements (after blocking): 11in (18cm) deep by 60in (152.5cm) long
