Recently, a thread on some of the Yahoo groups has been about circular shawl patterns. I've found very few free ones on the web. They are sometimes labeled doilies, tablecloths, Pi shawls, baby shawls or blankets, etc. They all look like they could be made as shawls.

If you know of any other free circular shawl patterns for these, let me know.
There are quite a few doily patterns at http://www.yarnover.net that can be and have been made into shawls. The Kunststrik.dk (http://tinyurl.com/ct4kq)patterns are the largest, with Alita, Mommes Lysedug, Påfuglehale, Stor Lysedug, and Stor Rund Dug being over 100 rounds, and therefore the most suitable for knitting as shawls. I hope that this helps you out!
