Lyrical Lace Shawl

Graceful curves and arches, inspired by Estonian lace knitting motifs, create a poetic rhythm and beauty in this lyrical shawl.

The shawl is worked by casting on for the bottom edge then working up to the middle top, decreasing on every second row to create a triangular shape. Lace shaping is on one side only. This is a stocking stitch shawl. Sample shown in Dove Blue. NOTE: Fiddlesticks Knitting patterns are charted. Recommended for Intermediate lace knitters.
