Classic Gossamer Triangular Shawl Knitting Pattern Download

The allover design for this shawl uses four of the ten basic Orenburg elements: Peas are used for a grid of diamonds, Honeycomb for a flower, Beaded Way and Diagonal decorate the center diamonds, and the "snakes" from the Diagonals create the teeth. The teeth for the left edging are knitted first, then the body of the shawl and the right row of teeth are knitted at the same time; the diagonal edging at the top of shawl is knitted last.
