This is a translated version of the Honeycomb Shawl, first published in 1838. It is knit in Brown Sheep Naturespun Fingering in White and 4 shades of any other color.

The Honeycomb Shawl was first published in 1838 in The Workwoman’s Guide, by A Lady. The pattern as written was rather short and unclear. This “translation” is intended to help you easily knit your own early Victorian shawl.
