Reclining Tiger Shadow Art Pattern - Download

This is a downloadable pattern. You will get an instant download following payment.

This is an art work created with shadow knitting  It features a reclining Tiger. This artwork is great for long spaces such as hallways, as it is best viewed from the side.  Finished product measures approximately 175cm x 74cm ( if using recommended needle with 8ply yarn ) The finished product is large enough to be used as a wearable "wrap".  or to be stretched onto frame and hung on the wall as an artwork.

You can use any yarn type. As they are wall hangings I use acrylic 8ply yarn. You can of course choose what you prefer.

Shadow knitting involves knit and purl, there is no actual colour work or floats to contend with. It can be easily completed by any level of knitter, even if you are a beginner.

The Pattern: The pattern provides general instructios for colour choice. There is a choice of "written instructions" or "a chart" to follow, which ever you prefer.

Stitches: Knit, Purl, Cast on, Cast off.

Materials: You need approximately 800g of yarn for this project, 400g of each colour.  Help to pick your colours is included in the pattern. I used 8ply / DK yarn for this project. You can use any yarn but it will alter the size and the amount of yarn used. I used a 3.5mm circular needle, 120cm. You can use smaller if you want more definition.

All measurements and weights used in this description and patterns are approximate due the amount of variables, yarn weight, tension of the knitter etc. Jamo Designs take no responsibility for the size of the finished product.
