This is a pattern for a knit shawl hat features two lace stitches that come to us from Japan. Both are interesting and fun to knit. One is a distinct lace stitch and the other is a “lace-bobble” stitch. Together, the two stitches make a unique and beautiful shawl. The stitches, although they are Japanese, are easily learned by Western knitters, especially those who love knitting lace. All symbols have been “translated” to the ones that most Americans are used to seeing.

All stitches are charted only.

The crochet hook method of making bobbles (nupps) is included in the pattern, as are the instructions for an optional crocheted edging.

Skill Level: Intermediate (assuming a good working knowledge of lace knitting.)
Skill Level for the optional Edging: Intermediate (assuming a working knowledge of crocheting)

The shawl shown in the sample was made Fleece Artist’s BFL Sport Weight yarn (undyed)

This pattern was expertly tested by Debi Maige, who can be reached at: locations@ verizon.net and was displayed at the 2019 January’s Winter TNNA convention.
