Pincha Shawl from Knitty


I don't know how many of you are aware of Knitty Magazine. It is the longest running free knitting magazine on the web. I always look forward to their issues. They have beautiful patterns from great knitters. I found this Pincha Shawl a while ago and always wanted to make it. The designer is Pinpilan Wangsai. This pattern was featured in their Spring-Summer 2016 issue. 



Here's my version! The weather got warmer and I started knitting! Makes total sense, right?? Anyways, it's a fun knit and not as hard as you may think. I think it's going to make a very interesting shawl for fall. I love items that are unique. I usually work on it while watching television. As long as the air conditioning is running!!
