East Farleigh Bridge

Discover the charm of the **East Farleigh Bridge Shawl**, a stunning crescent-shaped lace shawl inspired by the medieval stone bridge spanning the River Medway in Kent, England. This exquisite shawl is crafted using fingering weight yarn, with the crescent silhouette mirroring the stone spans of the bridge itself. Its intricate lace pattern beautifully represents the arches and triangular stonework of this historic structure, making it not just a garment but a piece of art.

Designed for knitters of all skill levels, the **East Farleigh Bridge Shawl** features a pattern gauge of 11 stitches and 18 rows per 2 inches (5 cm) over stocking stitch, using 4mm (US 6) knitting needles. Once completed and blocked, this elegant shawl measures approximately 11 inches (28 cm) deep at the center. You can choose from two versatile lengths: the **short version** spans 55 inches (140 cm) and the **long version** extends to 65 inches (165 cm), allowing for personalized styling options.

This shawl is worked from the bottom up, starting with a captivating lace section that evokes the beauty of ancient architecture. A smooth transition through a delicate mesh insertion leads to garter stitch short rows, artfully shaping the crescent form of the shawl. With both charted and fully-written instructions for the lace section provided, knitters will find the pattern easy to follow and complete.

To successfully create the **East Farleigh Bridge Shawl**, you should be comfortable working basic increases and decreases, including techniques such as yarn overs (YO), slip, slip, knit (SSK), and knit two together (K2tog). This project will not only enhance your knitting skills but also result in a breathtaking accessory that showcases your craftsmanship.
