Product Description
The instructions provided in this pattern will enable you to make this beautiful light, lacey, and delicate wrap that features a combination of plain and filled diamonds in the Shetland Lace tradition.
It can be knitted in a variety of different wool weights from cobweb up to 3 ply or light fingering, however, the heavier the yarn is, the larger the finished article will be. This pattern includes two charts, one with beads and one without.
The pattern is a charted pattern only, with no written row by row instructions, so it is not for the faint-hearted. Only buy this pattern if you can knit from a chart.
Misha Lace Wrap by Deborah Mason
Project Overview
The Misha Lace Wrap is an intermediate-level knitted shawl design created by Deborah Mason, available as a downloadable PDF pattern. This elegant wrap features delicate diamond lace motifs and is worked in cobweb and lace weight yarn, making it a sophisticated accessory project for knitters with some experience in lace techniques.
What Is Being Made
This pattern produces a knitted wrap featuring diamond lace construction. The Misha Lace Wrap is designed as a versatile shawl suitable for layering or wearing as a decorative wrap, combining aesthetic appeal with the airy, delicate qualities characteristic of lace-weight knitting.
Yarn and Materials
The Misha Lace Wrap is knitted using cobweb and lace weight yarn. The designer used Jamieson & Smith Shetland Wool Brokers yarn, specifically a 1 ply cobweb weight yarn with a yardage of 365 metres per 25-gram ball. The pattern calls for fairly large needles to work with this delicate yarn weight, creating the characteristic open, flowing fabric typical of lace wraps.
Knitting Techniques and Stitches
This intermediate project employs lace knitting techniques to create the diamond lace pattern throughout the wrap. Lace knitting involves strategic yarn overs and decreases worked in coordinated sequences to form decorative openwork designs. The diamond motif requires careful attention to stitch placement and pattern repeats, making this an excellent project for knitters looking to develop or refine their lace skills.
Skill Level
Rated as intermediate difficulty, the Misha Lace Wrap is suitable for knitters who have mastered basic techniques and are ready to work with delicate yarn weights and follow lace pattern instructions. The combination of cobweb weight yarn, lace stitches, and diamond patterning requires focus and pattern-reading ability.
