Correction:

Row 12 of chart shows “p2togtbl” symbol following a ptbl. There shouldn’t be a p2togtbl, it should just be a purl stitch. The written direction is correct

Row 37: there is missing cross 2 L on the chart. The written direction is correct.

Row 79: it should said lcd not special sts

These errors are fixed in pattern rev. 10 april 11

Narnia is a triangular shawl worked from the top down. This shawl was quite challenging for me as I learnt some new stitches that are quite a handful to do. This shawl is all about texture. It reminds me of the wood carving in my grandparents’ wardrobe, and I always imagine that wardrobe was the same wardrobe in the The Chronicles of Narnia story.
I used worsted weight yarn for this pattern to make the texture pop out. As a result, not only is this shawl beautiful to look but it is very functional.
As usual pattern includes charts and written directions. I also include a picture tutorial of how to make the crochet bind-off, and tips on how to make a larger shawl and calculate the yardage needed.
