Irene
Named after my maternal Grandmother, who lived to the age of 99, Irene is a crochet shawl which forms an elongated, winged triangle shape, with a central spine which runs most of the way down the back, and is worked from the top down.
It features a variety of lace patterns, with a combination of solid areas and other more openwork sections, finishing with a decorative hem edging.
There are two versions, the standard laceweight being slightly smaller, and the fine laceweight incorporating additional sections of pattern. Either version can be worked from a single 100g skein of yarn.
(The design could also be worked in a thicker yarn, eg 4-ply, but this would require extra yarn.)
Designed to be quite challenging and interesting to work, the pattern changes throughout the shawl. This design is therefore classed as intermediate to advanced and recommended for those with a reasonable level of experience.
Errata in v1.0:
Row 39: there are two references within this row to:
(1dc in 1chsp, 3ch) twice
These should both read: (1dc in 3chsp, 3ch) twice
Errata in v1.2:
Version 2 (Fine Lace) Row 47 is incorrect and should read as follows:
Row 47: 3ch, 2tr in first tr, ‘(3ch, 1dc in 3chsp) 4 times, ‘’(5ch, 1dc in 5chsp) 3 times, (3ch, 1dc in 3chsp) 3 times’’, rep from ‘’ to ‘’ 17 times’, rep from ‘ to ‘ once, 3ch, 1dc in 3chsp, 3ch, 3tr in top of 3ch.
Errata in v1.3: Version 2 (Fine Lace) Rows 56 and 57 should read as follows:
Row 56: 3ch, 2tr in first tr, (3ch, 1dc in 3chsp) twice, 3ch, “1dc in 3rd tr, 5tr in dc, 1dc in 3rd tr, (3ch, 1dc in 3chsp) 6 times, 3ch”, rep from “ to “ 17 times, 1dc in 3rd tr, 5tr in dc, 1dc in 3rd tr, (3ch, 1dc in 3chsp) 3 times, 3ch, 1dc in 3rd tr, (3ch, 1dc in 3chsp) 4 times, 1dc in 3rd tr, (3ch, 1dc in 3chsp) 3 times, 3ch, rep from “ to “ 18 times, 1dc in 3rd tr, 5tr in 1dc, 1dc in 3rd tr, (3ch, 1dc in 3chsp) twice, 3ch, 3tr in top of 3ch.
Row 57: 3ch, 2tr in first tr, (3ch, 1dc in 3chsp) 3 times, 3ch, “1dc in 3rd tr, (3ch, 1dc in 3chsp) 7 times, 3ch”, rep from “ to “ 18 times, (1dc in 3chsp, 3ch) 6 times, rep from “ to “ 18 times, 1dc in 3rd tr, (3ch, 1dc in 3chsp) 3 times, 3ch, 3tr in top of 3ch.
