Aria Shawl
ARIA LACE SHAWL PATTERN
Discover the enchanting Aria Lace Shawl, a beautifully crafted crescent-shaped shawl that showcases intricate Estonian lace techniques, complete with delicate nupps that add texture and depth to your work. This stunning shawl can also be embellished with beads to enhance its charm, making it a perfect accessory for any season or occasion.
MATERIALS REQUIRED
The sample shawl utilizes 918 yards (840 meters) of light fingering weight Ice yarn Cakes Cotton Fine, a luxurious blend of 50% cotton and 50% acrylic. Each skein contains 656 yards (600 meters) in a vibrant #fnt2-46650 Salmon Pink Lilac color that adds a delightful touch to your finished project.
For best results, use a size US 5 (3.75mm) needle, ideally a 40”/100cm long circular needle to accommodate the large number of stitches in this design. Additionally, a size US 8 (5.00mm) regular needle will also be needed for specific sections. A size F (3.75mm) crochet hook is recommended for creating nupps, although this item is optional.
Don't forget to gather some stitch markers to keep track of your progress. If you're looking to add extra sparkle, select size 6 glass beads and use a size 15 (0.15mm) steel crochet hook for bead placement (please note: beads are not charted in this pattern). Completing your toolkit, a tapestry needle for weaving in ends and blocking materials will help you achieve the perfect finish.
GAUGE DETAILS
Achieve a gauge of 25 stitches and 32 rows over a 4” / 10 cm square in Stockinette stitch (blocked) using size US 5 (3.75mm) needles. While gauge is not absolutely essential for this project, it can be a valuable reference for selecting the right yarn and ensuring a balanced fit.
