The lace elements in the Banse shawl are intuitive and easy to follow, making it the perfect knitting project for beginners eager to hone their lace knitting skills while learning something new.

While the pattern maintains a rhythm through the alternating stripes and lattice-like lace, you can adjust the final stripe section to suit your personal style and preferences. This flexibility ensures that each shawl is uniquely yours, adding a personal touch to your finished piece.

The featured Banse shawl was skillfully knitted using luxurious fingering yarn from Kokonki, specifically in color A681, on US 2 ½ – 3.00 mm needles. I used an entire 270g skein (approximately 9.52 ounces) boasting a generous length of 1000m (or 1093 yards), resulting in a large and warm shawl that measures around 190 x 80 cm (or 75 x 31 ½ inches) once blocked.
