This is a sideways shawl that was inspired by the many facets of the sugar plum fairy, from her intricate costume of glittering appliques, to her tiara, to the shape of her tutu. A thin, slender crescent shawl with a garter body and a decorative open lace stitch pattern forms a delicate plum blossom panel amongst an airy, whimsical openwork border.

This shawl was designed for the adventurous beginner knitter, yet keeping the detail interesting and memorable enough for the skilled knitter. The magic of this shawl happens, like all knitted items, in the blocking.

SHAPE: Crescent

NOTIONS: 2 stitch markers, cable needle and a
tapestry needle for weaving in ends.

PATTERN STYLE: The pattern contains written as well as chart instructions. There is a key and full abbreviation list included as well.

DIFFICULTY: Advanced Beginner

YARN: This pattern was specifically designed for solid or tonal yarn as well as a gradient or color block.

SIZE: 63” x 15” (Blocked and unpinned). This is the size of the sample, please keep in mind the size of your shawl may vary depending on your yarn skein’s yardage.

NOTE: You will need to weigh your yarn on a scale before you start, and as you knit this shawl. If you are not using a scale, you MUST swatch to get gauge and follow the repeats of the sample.

The beauty of the construction of this shawl is you can make as small or as large as you would like, repeating the sections according to your OWN skein’s yardage, enabling you to use very close to the entire skein of yarn.
