Welcome to our generously proportioned double-sided garter stitch pattern for an exquisite asymmetrical shawl, complete with a delightful bonus pattern for a covered coat-hanger! This knitting pattern is perfect for showcasing that beautiful yarn you couldn’t resist, as it can be adapted to any gauge without altering the stunning proportions of the shawl.

The shawl pattern begins at the bottom and works its way up, allowing you the freedom to stop whenever you feel satisfied with the finished size. This flexibility makes it an ideal project for knitters of all levels! The pattern employs simple yet effective stitches—including knit (k), knit two together (k2tog), yarn over (yo), and an elegant eye-cord bind-off—to craft a beautiful lace-edged shawl that stands out from the crowd.

Designed with the beginner knitter in mind, this project is perfect for anyone looking for a relaxing knitting experience that doesn't require intense concentration but still results in a stunning creation adorned with elegant details. The shawl features a straightforward two-stitch lace edge along the long side and a lovely Shetland style lace along the short edge, adding a touch of elegance to your finished piece.

This pattern holds sentimental value, as I inherited Grandma’s cherished knitting patterns, and this particular lace edge was written on paper salvaged from an old address book. Now, it can be yours to create and cherish, bringing a piece of knitting history into your home.

Don’t miss the opportunity to knit this timeless shawl and make a thoughtful gift for yourself or a loved one. Dive into this project and discover why it’s a favorite among knitters! Download the pattern today and start creating something truly beautiful!
