This is a Shetland-style square shawl using traditional Shetland lace patterns. The construction is simple - a central square is knit, then stitches are picked up all around and worked on circular needles, after which the lace edging is added.
NOTE: Fiddlesticks Knitting Patterns use charts.
Recommended for Advanced Intermediate or Experienced lace knitters.
