Knitting pattern shawl, wrap "Eryn"

Eryn is the elvish word for forrest or wood. I named this nice half-circle shaped shawl after the twining leaf motif segment in the center.

The shawl is knitted top-down starting with a traditional center stitch which will separate later. If you want, you may place beads in the leaves.
A fringed edge is a special highlight and gives the shawl the trendy "Boho look''.

The shawl is wearable in versatile ways. You can wear it as a wedding accessoire or close it with a brooch and wear it as a poncho.

Finished size after blocking approx. 180 x 73 cm (70 x 28 in)
Gauge 25 stitches x 30 rows = 4 in, stockinette stitch, needle size 3.5 (US 4)
