Tina Shawl

This is a Shetland-style square shawl using traditional Shetland lace knitting patterns. The construction is simple — a garter stitch central square is knit, then stitches are picked up all around and worked in stocking stitch on circular needles, after which the garter stitch lace edging is added. NOTE: Fiddlesticks Knitting patterns are charted. Recommended for Advanced Intermediate or Experienced knitters.
