Da Luxe is worked from the center out starting with a modular “modern quilt square”. Da Luxe is designed to be worked with a 25 mini skein advent set. It is easy to stash dive and make your own, or work with an existing advent set. Da Luxe is a big shawl and/or a long cozy blanket... I've been loving snugging up in it on my chaise!
We have a KAL for Da Luxe and Da Light in my Ravelry group! JOIN US!
Wings built off of the center square are shaped with a series of increases and decreases as slipped stitches migrate towards the outside edge of the wings. The pattern includes an extensive video tutorial and KAL support! Let's get this party started!
