The Blooming Ginger Shawl starts out nice and easy with a garter tab cast on and large swath of garter stitch before venturing on to a unique lacy stitch. I have included instructions for resizing the shawl should you so desire. Pattern has been tested and approved.

Difficulty Intermediate; pattern requires garter tab cast on, k, p, ssk, k2tog, yo, use of stitch markers, chart reading, and elastic bind off.
