Tajimi Lace Shawl

This is a knit shawl pattern that features two lace stitches that come to us from Japan. Both are interesting and fun to knit. One is a distinct leaf-lace stitch and the other is a “lace-bobble” stitch Together, the two stitches make a unique and beautiful shawl. The stitches, although they are Japanese, are easily learned by American knitters, especially those who love knitting lace. All symbols have been “translated” to the ones that most Western knitters are used to seeing.

There are two ways of knitting nupps contained within the pattern and the pattern also contains instructions for an optional crocheted edging.

All stitches are both charted and written out line by line.

Skill Level: Intermediate (assuming a good working knowledge of lace knitting.)

All heavy weight fingering yarn or light weight sport weight yarn will work for this pattern.

No crochet hooks needed if you don't want to do the optional crocheted edging.
