The Cabled Lace Shawl is a crescent shaped shawl worked from the top down. The construction begins with a cabled band. Stitches are picked up along the band and the stockinette center panel is worked. The bottom lace band is then worked across the bottom picking up stitches along the stockinette edge. The pattern is rated moderate as beginners may have some difficulty with some of the techniques used.
