Hozuki

Introducing our beautifully crafted shawl pattern inspired by the enchanting flowers known as Chinese lanterns, or hozuki in Japanese culture. This stunning shawl begins at the nape of the neck with an intricate lace leaf pattern, beautifully transitioning into reverse stockinette. The main body of the shawl is worked in reverse stockinette, where delightful lantern motifs float gracefully on the surface, creating a visually striking effect.

The crescent shape of this shawl is achieved through carefully placed increases around each lantern, ensuring a flattering fit that drapes beautifully over your shoulders. To add the finishing touch, the shawl is delicately edged with a scalloped lace pattern and concludes with a charming loopy bind-off, making it a perfect accessory for any season.

Finished size: 42 inches in width along the garter stitch edge and 17.5 inches tall from the center back to the cast-off edge, making it an ideal wear for both casual outings and more formal events.

This shawl pattern is perfect for knitters of various skill levels looking to expand their repertoire with a unique design that features both elegance and artistry. Download our free shawl pattern today and bring a touch of nature-inspired beauty to your knitting collection!
