By Chance is a large, two-color lace triangular shawl, knitted top down. An easy crochet chain bind off frames the even easier lace pattern, making it a relaxing knit for experienced lace knitters and an engaging project for advanced beginners.

My sample is quite big, but the shawl can be easily made smaller (resizing instructions are provided).
