This is the sixth design in the Celtic Cable Shawls collection.

This circular lace-weight shawl features a huge Celtic knot comprised of just one strand, which loops around infinitely.

The shawl is knitted from the centre-out and is finished with a simple lace edging that can be blocked out into points.

The sample shown was worked in lace-weight yarn; for a bigger shawl, a heavier yarn such as fingering weight could be used (note that extra yardage may be required).

The pattern is both fully charted and fully written-out.
