This is such a beautiful design, we just had to bring it back again.

The Pattern 

We have not included the pattern as part of the cost of this kit.  Indeed, we strongly urge that you get pattern as itself on the designer's Ravelry page or as part of the very worthwhile whole e-book.

This puts a copy in your Ravelry library and ensures you get any updates right away. (If you plan this option, make sure our drop-down menu labeled "Pattern" is set to "No Pattern Needed" as you don't need one from us here.)

However, should that not work for you for any reason, I can work out a printed copy for you or as a pdf saved on this website inyour personal Account page.

We have set up a drop-down menu for you to set as you wish.

The Design

Here is what the designer, Kristina Vilimaite, writes about her Circles of Light:

This laceweight shawl is worked entirely in the round but surprisingly, its shape is a beautiful crescent. Bird’s eye lace is so easy to knit when all stitches are worked on the right side.

The knitting starts in the middle of the shawl with Judy’s magic cast on. The shawl is worked in one piece, shaped with some increases and decreases, then bound of at the top and bottom edges.

The shawl is written for one size, with instructions to customize the size. Beads are optional. The pattern is both fully written out and charted.

The Yarn

Our kits are not of the same yarn nor colorway that Kristina used for her original piece. You can see what we offer in the inset photo on the upper righthand corner of the top picture and again below that. The other pictures show the original shawl and are there so you can see the design itself.

 We have brought in a few solid colors of Dolly Baby from Laines du Nord, part of their Luxury Line.

This yarn is 100% mulesing-free extrafine wool yarn thast was designed specifically for the sensitive skin of babies. It is also great for anyone who want the very best for next-to-skin wear.

Kristina suggests about 558 yards (510m) of lace weight yarnfor knitting this piece. Each ball of Dolly Baby has 254 yards (233m)/ 50g so each of our kits will include three balls each (762 yards) -- we prefer that you have extra and can relax with the knitting and two balls would only give you 508 yards.

Choose from:

1. #226 Magenta: I would correct this name and call this a rich fuchsia.

2. #15 Aquamarine: Another mis-named color to my eyes.  This is a soft baby blue.

3. #210 Seafoam: Yes, here I agree with the name; this is a light seafoam. 

The Beads

Kristina has used the beads like little water droplets, to capture the light. 

These beads are optional but we'll be including them in each kit -- we feel they really add a special look.  

What is required is only 168 size 6/0 beads -- our 15+ grams will give you wll more than that.

I often to go with beads that mirror to some degree the color of the yarn (perhaps a bit darker or a bit lighter). 

Alternatively, a contrast bead would look great-- I am thinking perhaps a silver lined crystal to really reflect light and mimic dew drops on a bright summer day.

If you have an idea of what color bead you'd like, tell me.  Otherwise I will chose for you.
