About this Pattern
This light and airy shawl is named after Riverside Studio’s beautiful “Bewitched” colourway. Drawing loosely from Faroese construction, the shawl begins at the top with an I-Cord tab cast-on, and ends with a knitted-on lace-border. Three different lace patterns adorn this shawl; just enough to keep you on your knitting toes! You’ll need one skein in a solid colour for the body and one skein of speckled yarn for the border.
