Sesheta Shawl - by Stick Chick Knits

Designed by Melissa Goodale of Stick Chick Knits.

You'll feel wise indeed draped in Sesheta, a triangular shawl with an open mesh lace pattern. Named for the Egyptian goddess of knowledge, writing and mathematics, Sesheta displays strong geometric symbols, with triangle and pinwheel designs down the spine and around the hem. Knit from side to side, this lacy shawl only takes one skein of yarn to complete, allowing you to make intelligent use of your stash!

About the Designer - Working under the label Stick Chick Knits, Mel spends her days in Seattle dreaming up new designs and playing with yarn. Her projects expand to fill the space available. Luckily, this doesn't seem to bother her loving husband and sons.
