This pattern is for the more experienced knitter. This pattern is a completely graphed out lace pattern and is worked in the Orenburg style of lace shawls. Although it is knitted in a garter stitch (with the lace additions of yo, k2tog, k3tog, etc), it also uses short rows to create the corners and has a small grafting at the end to create a seamless edging all the way around the edge. It also requires the knitter to be able to keep track of a number of different patterns that are worked simultaneously.
