Setting the stage
Setting the stage is a fitting name for this crescent shaped shawl as you are constantly increasing in rows of Stockinette stitches to then finally setting the stage to a spectacular, yet easily knitted lace border.
Blocked size: Span of 84” in the bottom lace section, 17” in height, including the 4” height lace portion.
The pattern is written and has a lace chart.
Use up your stash or knit from a knit kit, either way you will thoroughly enjoy this project~

Darning needle or crochet hook for finishing
Gauge:
You may need a larger needles size, as I am a loose knitter. A gauge swatch will reassure you of the needle size needed.
