LacyLoop Shawl
This big shawl is constructed by casting on 4 stitches and working symmetrical increases from that point on. The combination of both stitch patterns, loop stitch and lace stitch, generates a fabric that varies between tight and light textures. This, together with the added color rhythm, ends up creating a harmonic pattern and a jazzy shawl.
The pattern is easily modified to make a smaller or bigger version, making it very easy to adjust to the amount of yarn you have available. For the sample, we used the complete skeins, turning it into a perfect project to completely use up those favorite skeins you have been saving for something special.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! :)
