mini-shawl or scarf knit end-to-end in garter stitch with a
lace border worked simultaneously

I have a Pashmina problem. I was looking for a pattern to use as much of a single skein as possible and ended up making my own.

The lace stitch is lightly modified from a traditional lace edging I’ve seen by several different names - Van Dyke and Fan lace among them.

Finished piece is light but cozy - just wide enough to be thrown over the shoulders and long enough to wear as a scarf.
