Introducing the stunning Forte’ Shawl knitting pattern, expertly designed to be knit from the top down for an elegant crescent shape once blocked. This versatile pattern is available in both Lace Forte’ and Stockinette Forte’ variations, each featuring a beautiful lace edging. With three sizes included, the Forte’ is perfect for knitters of all skill levels looking to create a stylish and functional piece. The unique and fully charted design comes with detailed written instructions for each style, making it easy to follow along.
