Knitting Kit \u2013 Cirrus by Natasja Hornby<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s how Natasja describes her design:
\nThe most striking feature of the Cirrus shawl is its giant mosaic (slipped-stitch) pattern, which draws the eye while being easy to knit. Depending on the setting, these shapes can be seen as flowers, delicate sea creatures, or windmills. But that\u2019s not all: lovely textures, garter-stitch stripes, and a shape that\u2019s a joy to wear.
\nAnd yes, it sounds like a lot, but the thoughtful details and meticulously balanced proportions keep it from feeling over the top in any way. Cirrus will turn heads wherever you go, but it\u2019s also remarkably easy to wear and effortlessly elegant. <\/p>\n
CONSTRUCTION:
\nCirrus is a sideways triangle. You\u2019ll start with just a few stitches, then work increases to shape the shawl. The top edge is shaped with German short rows. Once the body is finished, you\u2019ll pick up stitches along the lower left edge of your shawl to work the border around both lower edges. <\/p>\n
Personally, even though I\u2019m not really a shawl person\u2026 I had so much fun knitting Cirrus, and I was sad when it was finished. I wanted more!!! <\/p>\n

*The Cirrus Shawl would also knit up beautifully in the Tib\u00e9taine fingering base, and to add even more texture, I\u2019d hold a strand of Bamys or Imp\u00e9ratice along the bobble motif.*<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
