DINO knits: Pterodactyl

Though not technically a dinosaur, the inspiration for this next shawl design is often lumped in with them. Pterodactyl was, in fact, a flying reptile.

Soaring through the air with the greatest of ease, its adult wingspan topped out at only about three feet, so you’ll have him bested with this shawl, which reaches over five feet!

This shawl's large swathes of stockinette stitch with simple shaping are easily memorized to keep you aloft for quite some time before having to refer to the pattern again.
