Product Details
This is a pattern for a very "long wingspan" crescent shaped shawl that is comprised of two different lace stitches. The focal stitch of the shawl is a "true" lace that comes to us from Russia. The ornate lace edging stitch is added in the traditional Shetland manner. The focal stitch is so unique that it's not often seen and will make this shawl an instant heirloom. The shawl measures 74 inches at the widest points across the top and is 26 inches deep at the deepest point. It is made with a heavier of the fingering weight yarns, and is knit on size #6 (U.S.) needles. The shawl requires approximately 1100 yards of yarn. The "crescent shape" is less pronounced than in many of my shawls in this same category, which allows more of the focal stitch to show. The stitches are both charted and written out line by line. Skill Level: Intermediate + - Advanced (assuming a basic knowledge of lace knitting).
The shawl was expertly test knitted by Barbara Robertson (Barb. Robertson@ gmail.com).
