Pi…
a
circular shawl
Linda Johnson

Elizabeth Zimmerman
published the basic pattern for this shawl in the early ‘70’s and it
has recently resurfaced in a big way. We’ll use her basic pattern
and look at many ways to make it your own. A simple Pi
pattern makes a great travel project.

charts, planning your shawl, knitting in the round, different yarns,
a knitted cast off/edging and we’ll join Elizabeth Zimmerman as she
teaches us her pattern and shares her opinions.

appx 200 yds sock weight yarn, US 7-10 double pointed and circular
needles, crochet hook corresponding to your needles, knitting
notions. A copy of My Favorite Pi shawl pattern will be given
to each student. We’ll knit a sampler size in class..
