Margaret Dashwood Shawl
I designed this sweet rustic lace shawl with young Margaret Dashwood in mind. I imagine one of the first things a young lady in reduced circumstances (living in a drafty cottage by the sea, no less) would need for her wardrobe is a pretty but functional everyday shawl. The shawl is worked from side to side, and the garter and lace edging is a perfect match for the airy, woolen-spun yarn I used. Using the simplest techniques for lace and shaping, this is an ideal first shawl for a beginning or intermediate knitter.
Skills needed:
- Knit
- Purl
- Slip
- Knit 2 together
- Yarn over
- Knit front and back
