Dare to Dream
Now more than ever we need to dream, dream
about peace, dream about a happy future and
dream about being safe. My biggest wish is that
this shawl will bring you some kind of peace while
you knit on it and happy smiles when you will
wear it later.
Dare to Dream is a triangular Estonian shawl
knitted from the bottom up, with different lace
motives and nupps.
The shawl is available in two sizes, small and big,
where the small version is best suited for a
fingering weight yarn (about 400m/100g) and the
big can be knitted with both fingering weight, but
it will turn out very big, or lace weight (about
800m/100g). If you want to knit with a thinner yarn
make sure to check your gauge so that you will
end up with the approximately correct size of the
shawl.
