Lyra Shawl

$11.00

Do you ever gift a shawl to a non-knitter, only to see them wearing it with the wrong side on the outside?

Thankfully, Lyra is a fully reversible shawl, making it gift-proof for your favourite knit-worthy friends who may not always remember the right side.

Lyra is a triangular shawl that’s worked sideways along the bias. The shawl increases by 3 stitches every 4 rows, giving it that classic boomerang shape. We have graded this pattern for 3 sizes, but it is ridiculously easy to modify should you wish for other sizes or yarn weights, giving you a range of versatility and options for your shawl.

Worked flat, this shawl pattern contains written directions and charts. A link to a handy-dandy progress tracker is included to help you with your row and stitch counts should you need it.
