Zimtstern

Listing is for the pattern (knitting instructions) only.

The winter holidays bring to mind warm drinks and festive treats, like my favorite cookie, Zimtstern.

This top down triangle shawl was designed to capture the rich cinnamon and sparkling sugar of those delicious star-shaped German cookies, and it’s knit in gorgeous autumnal shades of Cheeky Merino Joy by Rosy Green Wool.

The mosaic pattern looks more complicated than it is, and the pleated border adds a pop of color.

So wrap up in Zimtstern, grab a cookie, and savor time with your loved ones.
