Product Details

Mehndi is the term for the artistic ornamental body painting done with henna. Inspired by these henna tattoos’, the pattern flows from the cast-on to the edge.

The heart-shaped shawl is knitted from the top down. Starting with a few stitches, the playful pattern makes it easy to knit and at the same time versatile. At the end, the border is knitted sideways.

The pattern provides charted and written instructions.

I used a solid colour to best show the pattern.
