A Murmuration of Starlings

**There is an introductory 20% discount until September 23th, midnight UTC. Enter the code *joy* at checkout.** A Murmuration of Starlings is a wide stay-put triangle of textured mesh & lace (each of which can be worked to any size), linked by a striking colourwork detail formed with slipped stitches & cables. The shawl is worked top down, beginning with a wide, shallow triangle, then shifting to a lace edge that makes the centre & edges deeper than a typical triangle. This means the overall shape can be adjusted to each knitter’s preference by working more of either chart 1 or 3. The pattern suits any yardage of lace to sport weight yarn, making this a very flexible design. The mesh and lace are both designed to be able to either nicely integrate a variegated yarn, or to show off a solid or gradient, or in this case a marvellous variegated gradient in just the colour of a starling’s iridescence. It is named for the everyday wonder that is a flight of starlings in the air. * The size of the shawl is adaptable, both the texture stitch and the lace section can be worked to any size. * Suits any yardage between approx 300m and 800m. Can also work work lace or sport weight. Choose needles that give you a gauge you like. * The design can be worked entirely from the written pattern, or from charts with some notes. * My project page can be found [here][1].
