Who wouldn’t want to be wrapped in a cashmere knit shawl pattern? This gorgeous Cascade shawl by Kirsten Kapur is knit from the top down, using a garter tab cast-on and two geometric lace motifs. Knit in DK-weight yarn that blooms beautifully when blocked, this would make a great intro-to-lace project.
