Vicia

Discover the enchanting Vicia Shawl, where delicate lace artistry meets bold color to create a stunning accessory. This exquisite shawl features Vicia’s feathery lace, adding a refined touch to any casual outfit, or serving as the perfect “something blue” for a magical spring wedding. Crafted from a luxurious merino-cashmere blend, the yarn is hand-dyed with indigo, resulting in beautifully variegated hues that enhance the intricate lacework.

Vicia is inspired by a cousin of the indigo plant and reimagines Elizabeth Zimmermann’s classic pi shawl construction into a graceful half-circle shape, making it a modern twist on a timeless design. This shawl is not only a functional piece but also an eye-catching accessory that can elevate your knitting portfolio.

Please Note: Lace patterns are available as charts only.

The Vicia Shawl is shown in A Verb for Keeping Warm's Even Tinier Annapurna yarn, but we also provide a suggested substitute yarn for your convenience, allowing for personalized touches based on your style and yarn preferences.

Skills: This pattern is perfect for knitters looking to enhance their skills in working lace using charted instructions and mastering the art of blocking for a polished finish. Whether you're a beginner eager to dive into lace knitting or an experienced knitter housing a passion for intricate designs, the Vicia Shawl is an excellent project to tackle.
