The flowering cactus is often the focal point of a cactus garden, having unique ribbed leaves with fluted edges and spines. Similarly, this bottom-up crescent shawl, featuring a vibrant tonal coloring from hand-dyed yarn, is bound to become the focal point in your wardrobe. Inspired by the delicate design of cactus flowers, you’ll love how beautiful this project looks in person.

NOTIONS: 13 Stitch markers (Optional), tapestry needle for weaving ends.

PATTERN STYLE: The pattern contains written as well as chart instructions. There is a key and full abbreviation list included as well.

NOTES:
If you are a loose knitter, do not swatch to get gauge, or wish to knit this using a larger needle then recommended, please account for more yardage than recommended.
