K'plunk shawl
K’plunk the game that this shawl takes its inspiration from requires a steady hand, quick judgement and a willingness for risk. This pattern takes a mitred diamond, flips it and starts creating the direction of the pattern from there.The shawl starts nice and simple with stockinette then has small sections of lace which represent the marbles, with short rows and colourwork at the centre to represent the
straws.
