This triangular shawlette is worked from the centre outwards. The ruffled edging is crochet, which is made by first casting off loosely then four double-trebles are worked into each stitch. This method creates dense and delicate ruffles that work for most of the lace yarn. If longer ruffles are desired, work extra rows of single double-treble (dtr) into each stitches. You can also use knitted ruffle edge instead by increasing the number of stitches by 3-4 times and work in stocking stitch.
