Leaf It To Me

Discover the beauty of lace knitting with this stunning shawl pattern, featuring three different lace leaf designs that form the exquisite foundation of the piece. This shawl is crafted in one continuous piece, worked sideways from end to end, making it a unique and engaging project for knitters. Each delicate leaf on the lower edge is beautifully accented with 3 shimmering glass beads, adding an optional touch of elegance that enhances the overall design.

For this gorgeous shawl, you'll need the following materials: 816 yards of fingering weight yarn (14 wpi). The sample was created using Araucania Nuble in the vibrant color 219 - Wasabi, requiring 3 skeins. Be sure to have US 5 (3.75 mm) knitting needles, 3 stitch markers, and 150 glass beads (6/0, optional) on hand to embellish your creation.

Once blocked, the finished shawl measures approximately 24 inches by 79 inches. Keep in mind that gauge is not a critical factor for this project. Different yarns can yield varied dimensions, so you can easily adjust the length and width of your shawl by manipulating the stockinette center pattern repeats to suit your preferences.

This pattern is presented in clear charts, making it user-friendly for moderate lace knitters. You'll encounter some unique stitch combinations that might be new to you, but don't worry—the detailed instructions in the pattern notes will guide you through every step. Embrace the art of lace knitting and create a stunning shawl that will become a cherished addition to your wardrobe or a heartfelt gift for a loved one.
