Asking for Flowers

A sideways shawl with biasing garter stitch makes for a beautiful drape, and a dramatic Shetland lace edging adds interest to the knitting - but not too much! - and to the finished product. Short-row wedges create a nice curved shape.

The colourway, “The Flowers” brings to mind all the joys of a summer garden - wear the shawl in the spring, to hasten the arrival of the season, and in the winter, to remind you of the glories to come.

Substitute any solid, semi-solid or gently variegated fingering weight yarn - you'll need 550m.

Suitable for knitters with a little lace experience, but you don’t need to be an expert!
