Hidden Hearts Lace Shawl

This enchanting shawl pattern features delicate hearts that subtly reveal themselves as you block the finished work, transforming it into the stunning focal point of your accessory collection. You will start with a lovely lacy bottom edging, followed by a captivating true lace pattern stitch that will keep you engaged and excited throughout the knitting process. Whether you choose to knit this shawl in a soft, delicate color for a special occasion such as a wedding or opt for a more robust yarn for a cozy, sturdy wrap, this pattern is versatile and perfect for various events and seasons.

Designed to be worked from the bottom up in two halves, the shawl is expertly joined at the center using the Kitchener stitch, ensuring a seamless finish. You can follow along with either the detailed charts or the clear, line-by-line written instructions, making this pattern accessible for knitters of all skill levels.

The finished measurements of this beautiful shawl, once fully blocked, are approximately 80 inches long (203 cm) and 22 inches wide (56 cm), providing ample coverage and drape for any occasion.

For this project, you will need about 1400 yards (1280 meters) of fingering weight yarn. The sample shawl was crafted using 7 balls of KnitPicks Palette in the lovely colorway Wonderland Heather, which is made from 100% Peruvian Highland Wool, with each ball containing 231 yards (50 grams).

To complete this gorgeous shawl, you will need two size U.S. 6 (4.0mm) circular knitting needles, available in either a 24-inch or 36-inch length (60 cm or 92 cm).
