shop sample: wavy lace shawlette handknit shawl
The Wavy Lace Shawlette in the new book "Knit in One!" by Marie Greene is a delicate lace-patterned one-skein handknit shawl. This unique shawl shape turns the typical shawl on its side, with the waves along the edge opposite where they’d normally be on a standard shawl. When worn with a shawl pin, the benefit to this shape is that all the fabric is in front. By wrapping this shawlette with the shorter edge around your neck, it leaves very little bulk behind your neck.
This shawlette is knit side to side, beginning at the smallest point. It grows in length with rhythmic lace details worked over a 16-row repeat and grows in width by casting on additional stitches at the start of each repeat. The new stitches form “scallops” along the lower edge of the shawl.
Sofia knit our sample in the beautiful and popular Madelinetosh Tosh Merino Light, a single ply, fingering weight, 100% superwash merino wool that creates a soft and drapey fabric. As with all the patterns in "Knit in One!", it was knit in just one skein.
