Lilac Feathers
This beautiful lace shawl will feel as soft and light as a feather on your shoulders, while the gently swaying “feathers” form the perfect backdrop to highlight the beauty of hand dyed yarns, for a truly delicate look..!
Wear it around your neck as a pretty and cosy addition to your style during the day, or let it drape over your shoulders for a slightly more formal and elegant effect in the evening… it is a great versatile accessory you will enjoy knitting!*
The pattern is easy to follow, written row by row AND fully charted, and easily adaptable if you would like to make a larger shawl, or if you are using finer yarns.
