Trinity Shawl

This design evolved because I needed to make a prayer shawl for a friend, and rather than the traditional k3, P3 pattern she requested something in a lighter weight cotton yarn with a more open pattern. This shawl maintains the rectangular shape and the 3 stitch multiple concept used in the original prayer shawl pattern; hence the name "trinity shawl". The design features a seed stitch border and panels of lace columns knitted in one piece. The mercerized cotton yarn is soft but shiny and makes a cozy summer shawl that isn’t uncomfortably hot.
