Quirky. Bold. Playful. Graphic.
Izar is eight knots and a starburst drawn with lace.

A modern, asymmetrical, take on classic celtic knots, Izar will lead you on a journey of twists and turns leaving you with a stunning shawl in the end.

      Thank you so much! I find photography one of the trickier parts of pattern writing, so I’m really glad someone likes my photos.
