Printed knitting shawl pattern
This circular shawl is based on Elizabeth Zimmerman’s Pi shawl construction, worked from the centre out and beginning with Emily Ocker’s Circular Cast-On (an almost invisible crochet cast-on). Please note that the charts do not show even-numbered rnds: these are worked as knit sts.
This circular shawl was inspired by flowers, especially roses, with the multi-coloured versions reflecting those that change colour as they open. I loved the idea of keeping the proportions of the petals the same as they grew, with more details appearing each time.
Maid Marion Shawl can also be knit in a single colour and a four colour version in John Arbon Textiles Knit by Numbers 4 ply is shown as well. All three versions of the shawl are blocked to the same size.

Lace Weight : 200g/1600m total (1-3 colours)
Recommended from our yarn range: Snowdonia or Cairngorm (Garthenor Organic)
3.5mm crochet hook
X4 4.5mm DPNS (15cm length)
4.5 mm circular needles (40cm, 80cm & 120cm length),
17 sts & 28 rnds
