I am addicted to designing and knitting pi shawls. This one alternates between very lacy honeycomb mesh and geometric patterns on a solid stockinette stitch background.
All of the openwork is made with double yarn-overs for an extra airy feel. In fingering-weight alpaca yarn, this shawl is warm and cozy, even with so much lace.
