Shattered Sun Shawl // a lacy half-pi shawl knitting pattern by Felicia Lo
Indulge in the elegance of lace knitting with this captivating half-pi shawl. Shattered Sun Shawl features an asymmetrical pattern with only two rows to remember. Just two!
We’ve knit this shawl in a dreamy CashSilk Lace so that knitters of every level can savor the soft openwork. You can also experiment with knitting it in a fingering-weight yarn, such as our Tough Love Sock, for a bit more texture and size. Whichever yarn weight you choose, the Shattered Sun shawl knitting pattern is a light, sweet treat for those cool summer nights.
This shawl is knit from the top down and the 4-page pattern PDF features both written and charted stitch patterns.

This is such a lovely shawl, easy to understand pattern and stunning results. I’ve done three so far. This would be a good first lace shawl for even an advanced beginner. I do recommend stitch markers for the lace pattern so that it’s easy to see if you make a mistake. My fav pattern EVER!
