Brokilon is a shawl inspired by the magical and dark place - The kingdom of forest dryads, from the Witcher’s world. It is forbidden territory full of big trees, plants and fantasy creatures.

This shawl is knitted top down. First, you knit a small triangular body with the textured stitch and then pick up stitches for the lace part. After leafy lace portion you repeat texture motive to make a Bridge to the magical forest. If you want you can add some beads on border to make beautiful effect of mystery or very delicate touch like morning dew depends of what yarn and beads you use.
