Meshing Around Shawl
Introducing the beautiful Meshing Around Shawl, a stunning accessory that features a unique crescent shape worked from the top down. This shawl begins with a long garter tab cast-on, which not only creates a lovely curved edge but also eliminates the unsightly garter hump, making it easy to block and achieve that professional finish! As you embark on your knitting journey, you will alternate between a delightful mesh pattern and a classic garter stitch stripe, adorned with a single row of eyelets for added elegance. Once your desired wingspan is achieved, you’ll transition to the intricate sawtooth lace edging, which adds a sophisticated touch to your shawl. Whether you choose to change yarn colors for a bold look or continue with a single color for a cohesive design, the decision is entirely yours! During the edging phase, you will also be binding off all the shawl stitches simultaneously, ensuring a clean and tidy finish. Remarkably, only a 16-stitch bind-off will be required upon completing the beautiful edging.
SKILLS NEEDED: This pattern is perfect for those who are familiar with K2tog (knit two together), p2tog (purl two together), yo (yarn over), kfb (knit front and back), m1 (make one), and the backwards loop cast-on technique.
PATTERN INCLUDES: Comprehensive instructions along with helpful tips for applying the edging; a row tracker for easy progress monitoring; a schematic for visual reference; and an optional chart for the lace edging, making this pattern accessible and user-friendly for knitters of various skill levels.
