Dragon's Fortune

My older son is obsessed with dragons, so I couldn’t resist trying to capture that magic in a design that’s still thoroughly grown up.

Here’s how it’s going to go: knit a long strip of gloriously textured dragon scales. Take delight in the delicious 3D-ness of the wrong side. Get all your fancy knitting out of the way first, then pick up along one long edge and settle into some easy garter stripes. You’re going to get the most out of your skeins as you knit until you run out.

This shawl was successfully tested in lace, fingering/sock, and sport yarn, so you can spread your wings and take flight.
