Garden Shawl
from Fiddlesticks Knitting

Create a figurative garden as you knit this shawl. Stroll with your needles down the flower-strewn paths that frame drifts of leaves, ferns and flowery borders. Based on Shetland lace patterns, this shawl is knit from the centre outwards and then the lacy leaf edging is added.

This shawl is knit on 3.5 mm (US 4) needles, starting from the centre and working outwards all around. Some of the Shetland lace patterns include leaf, fern, daisy and dew drops. Others are adapted for this pattern.

The pattern uses 7 skeins of Artisan NZ Merino Lace Weight yarn (20 gram skein = 300 metres). Finished size is 60 inches square.

Addi Turbo Lace Knitting Circular Needles
These excellent needles from Addi Turbo offer you enhanced features for lace, sock, and texture 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.
