Alternating bands of linen stitch and lacy eyelets create textural interest in this shawl, which can be worked in sport, fingering, or laceweight yarn. Edge may be straight, scalloped, or fringed. This pattern works well with a luscious variegated yarn like Manos Silk Blend, a yarn with long color runs that work up into stripes, or choose three different colors and work the stripes manually. And for the laceweight version, this pattern is perfect for that special skein of hand-dyed yarn--the simple alternating linen and lace sections let the yarn do the talking!
