Flowing Lace Shawl Knitting Pattern

Make a Shawl That Looks Like Serious Work

Lace knitting can feel like you're one missed yarn-over away from starting over. This shawl gives you a repeating diamond lace structure that builds on itself row by row, so once it clicks, you can keep going with confidence.

The result is something that drapes beautifully, looks far more intricate than it is to make, and holds its shape after blocking. One ball. One project. Something you'll actually be proud to wear.

Skill Level: Intermediate 
Finished Size: 199 cm (184 cm) wide x 49 cm (39 cm) deep — sport weight (fingering weight)

• The diamond lace repeat is worked between clear stitch markers, so you always know where you are and what comes next
• Works in either sport weight or fingering yarn with two needle sizes given, so you can choose based on what's in your stash
• Finished with short-row wings and an I-cord bind-off for a polished, structured edge that doesn't curl or collapse

"I finally blocked a lace shawl and it looked exactly how it was supposed to. That felt really good."
