Ooh La Lace Shawlette

This enchanting shawlette pattern was originally unveiled as the May 2013 offering for the renowned Twisted Shawlette Club. Drawing from a life-long fascination with all things French, this lacy edged shawlette beautifully captures the essence of Parisian elegance. The knitting process begins at the lower edge, featuring delightful waves of lace that mimic the frills of a can-can dancer's intricate petticoat. As you progress, you'll encounter charming rows adorned with iconic Eiffel Towers, adding a whimsical touch to your project. This crescent-shaped shawlette is expertly crafted using simple short rows, culminating in a delicate garter stitch eyelet border at the upper edge—Ooh la la!

With versatile sizing options, the shawlette comes in Small (42") and Large (43"). The central depth measures 12.5" for the Small and 16" for the Large, after blocking, ensuring a perfect fit for various occasions. The Small version is elegantly showcased with a turquoise shirt, while the Large version is paired beautifully with a dark purple shirt, allowing for personal expression and style.

The brown version of this stunning shawlette is knitted using Knitted Wit Shine, a luxurious blend of 50% merino wool and 50% tencel, providing a soft, drapey finish. With 410 yards per 115 grams or 4 ounces, you can confidently create a piece that not only looks fantastic but feels amazing too in the lovely colorway of Brown Sugar. Whether you're searching for the perfect summer accessory or a cozy wrap for chilly evenings, this shawlette pattern is a must-have in your knitting repertoire.
