Shawl “Medallions”

THE SHAWL IS VERY SOFT - LIGHT - AIR. Despite the volume of patterns. A chic outfit for evening summer walks, as well as the fall-spring off-season!

When the motifs are ready, begin laying them out on a large, flat surface. As you work, you will see where something is missing, what needs to be tied up and sewn on. When the canvas is assembled, start decorating with volumetric elements. The number of pom-poms is determined experimentally, depending on your vision of the plot.

Pom pom pattern

The pattern of the shawl - poncho - is a guideline for the layout of medallions. There weren't enough knitted medallions. Schemes of new elements have appeared.
