tausendschön shawl
The „Tausendschön Shawl“ presents itself with a graceful purple-violet color composition and a pattern inspired by old oriental building decorations. With its diagonal structure, it is knitted from the bottom up and in one piece. The challenge for me was to represent this floral and complex jacquard pattern in a diagonal shape.
The shawl is also part of my E-Book „Tausendschön Series“ together with 5 other inspiring designs.
