Hookset Cable Lace Shawl
This stunning shawl features two unique cable stitches expertly combined with a captivating Japanese ladder stitch. The result is a striking accessory that is sure to turn heads. While it offers an enjoyable knitting experience, it’s best suited for crafters seeking a challenge, as it is not a simple “TV knit.” For those who take pleasure in knitting cable lace, this intriguing combination of stitches will engage your creativity. Even seasoned cable knitters will find these innovative cables refreshingly different from what they may have previously encountered.
All stitches are clearly charted out, allowing for easy navigation through the pattern. With a finished size of 23 inches by 72 inches, this shawl is perfect for layering or adding a stylish touch to your outfit.
The pattern also includes comprehensive instructions for an optional edging, offering you the flexibility to customize your shawl’s look to your liking.
Skill Level: Intermediate (this pattern assumes you have a basic knowledge of cable and lace knitting techniques).
The yarn used in the sample is Sportmate by Lorna's Laces, which provides a beautiful drape and texture; however, any heavy weight fingering yarn or sport weight yarn can be utilized for this pattern. Whether you choose a bold color or a soft pastel, this shawl will shine through any choice of yarn.
No crochet hooks are required if you opt not to include the edging, making this a straightforward and enjoyable project for knitters looking to enhance their skills.
Get ready to impress your friends and family with your knitting prowess by creating this gorgeous shawl that beautifully marries innovative stitches with a classic accessory style!
