The Calon Cariad shawl is designed with a mesmerizing bottom-up construction, featuring a deep lace border complemented by a single heart motif near the top center back. To enhance its depth and character, the shawl incorporates short row shaping, ensuring it drapes elegantly around your shoulders. The pattern is fully written out and includes detailed charts for the lace sections, making it accessible for both beginners and experienced knitters alike.

You have the flexibility to follow the Calon Cariad pattern using just the written instructions, or you can choose to work with the provided charts for the intricate lace detailing. However, please note that certain rows, including all of the short row shaping, are not included in the charts, so it is essential to read the entire pattern before beginning your project to ensure a seamless knitting experience.

For my sample, I used 570 meters of John Arbon Textiles Alpaca 2-3ply yarn. If your gauge tends to be looser, you may need an additional skein to achieve the desired size and drape for your shawl.
