This graceful shawl features the beautiful beech leaf lace pattern and is designed for two weights of yarn, a fingering or laceweight.
Stitches are cast on for the bottom edge and rows become shorter as decreases at the centre panel and side edges create a triangular shape. Lace shaping is on one side only, except for lines of faggotting. At the end, stitches are picked up around all edges and a simple picot-point lace edging is worked.

Addi Turbo Lace Knitting Circular Needles
These fabulous new circular needles from Addi Turbo - the long respected name in well-crafted knitting needles - offer you enhanced features for both lace and sock knitting. They have sharp tips making it easier to work fine stitches; the needles are coated to give just the right amount of 'stick' so you have better control of lace stitches; and they have smooth joins between the needles and cord.
When selecting a needle size note that while the pattern has a suggested size (see above for Recommended needle size), you may need to use a different needle size in order to get gauge. If your experience with other Fiddlesticks patterns is that you have to go up or down a needle size to match gauge, then select the appropriate size.
