Mayuri Shawl – Knitting Pattern
Mayuri is a top-down, crescent lace shawl with a dramatic scalloped border that cascades into beautiful and feminine curls at each end. When I design, I love to mix lace cultures—what I like to call multi-national inspiration. Mayuri’s body pattern is composed of pretty Shetland eyelet columns that resemble little stacked roses while the predominant border design is an Estonian peacock stitch pattern. The name of the shawl comes from India and is a Sanskrit name meaning peacock.
While dimensions and yardage are provided for fingering or sock weight, Mayuri could also be worked in any weight you choose. Solid or tonal yarn is recommended for this design. The size is easy to customize by working more or fewer repeats of the Shetland eyelet motif on the shawl body— full instructions are provided, including how to calculate yardage and stitch counts for any size. The pattern includes detailed blocking instructions to show how to block the shawl in order to achieve the pretty curls at the wingspan ends.
