Kimani is a top-down, semi-circular shawl featuring an intricate, textured middle panel of abstract butterfly motifs flanked by side wings. There are two ways to work these wing sections: a Lace Wings version, which consists of an abstract butterfly lace pattern; and a Stockinette Wings version. The border consists of a textured eyelet rib, which adds a textural contrast to the rest of the design.

The nature of the design does not lend itself to size customization by working more/fewer chart repeats. So if you'd like a different size than referenced below, Kimani may be worked in different yarn weights other than the DK weight used for the sample shawls. Choose a fingering weight on smaller needles for a smaller, delicate looking Kimani, or a worsted weight on slightly larger needles for a big, snuggly Kimani with lots of texture. 

Kimani is offered as a chart-only pattern, with big-easy-to-read charts and detailed instructions to show how to work them.
