About this Pattern
This is an Advanced Beginner Level shawl that uses front and back post stitches to create depth and texture, coupled with extended stitches which create an ethereal and airy lace effect. This shawl was inspired by Galadriel, The Lady of the Wood, in the Lord of the Rings Trilogy, whose strength and grace are represented within the alternating rows of stitches. This shawl uses an easy 6 row repeat, and is customizable in size.
