Shell Bordered Antique Diamond Lace Wrap

This is a pattern for a wrap. It is knitted in the manner that many of the traditional lace shawls were knitted, however, it is knitted with a heavy weight fingering yarn, making it a much faster and easier project than a Shetland shawl. The center panel is a “true” lace, and the border is knitted on after the center panel has been completed. There are two distinct lace stitches contained within this pattern, both of which blend together nicely.

Skill Level: Intermediate - Intermediate + (assuming a basic knowledge of lace knitting).

The pattern for the stitches are both charted and written out line by line.

Any heavy fingering weight yarn or sport weight yarn with a gauge of 5 sts/inch in lace stitch on size U.S. 5 (3.75mm) needles will work for this pattern.
