Through the Looking Glass
Introducing "Through the Looking Glass," a beautifully crafted asymmetrical triangle shawl that artfully combines panels of intricate lace motifs with sections of soft, cozy stockinette stitch, all elegantly finished off with a delicate border. This stunning design is inspired by the enchanting experience of gazing through a window into a vibrant rose garden. The lace elements capture that ethereal beauty, while the subtle leaf pattern in the top border adds an extra touch of nature's charm. Perfect for knitters looking to create a stunning accessory that showcases their skills, I hope you enjoy this unique shawl as much as I loved designing it.
This shawl pattern was originally designed for fingering weight yarn, but it's versatile enough to accommodate other yarn weights by simply modifying the number of repeats. Keep in mind that adjustments will affect yardage, gauge, and the overall size of your finished object, allowing you to customize it to your liking.
Rest assured, this pattern has been both tech edited and thoroughly tested to ensure clarity and accuracy. I deeply appreciate the valuable contributions of all those who helped bring this design to life!
YARN REQUIREMENTS: For this breathtaking shawl, you will need 2 skeins of Apothefaery Yarns Linen Merino High Twist in the colorway Demeter’s Lament.

NEEDLE SIZE: To create this lovely shawl, you will need a US 7 (4.5 mm) knitting needle. This size optimally balances the stitch definition required for lacework and stockinette sections.
