Starseed
Starseed is another one of my storytelling patterns.
It is worked like a semi-mandala, starting at the center and building up as it expands outwards.
There is a motif, and the shawl is exploring the evolution of this motif- using double brioche as the main character, and syncopated single brioche in the background.
The shawl is knitted flat from the top down.
Make sure you know your Brioche before attempting to work this pattern.
