Lotus Horizon Shawl
Bright, jewel-toned bands of simple lace flow through a speckled river of garter stitch in this graceful, fingering-weight shawl. Each lace band represents an Egyptian hieroglyphic symbol (flax, house, lotus) and teaches a new, simple lace stitch that is easy to memorize and a treat to learn.
Skill Level: Easy
Gauge: 20 sts and 22 ridges (22 purl-bump ridges = 44 rows) = 4” 10 cm in Garter Stitch after wet blocking
Materials
Super fine weight yarnYarn: Frabjous Fibers and Wonderland Yarns Queen of Hearts (80% Superwash fine merino, 10% Cashmere, 10% Nylon; 410 yards 375 meters/113 grams): #141 SPLASH! ♥(MC, 2 balls), #49 Frumenty (CC, 1 ball)
Needles: US size 4 (3.5 mm) 24” or 30” circular

Special Stitches: M1R (Make 1 Right); M1L (Make 1 Left); DD (Double decrease)
♥Pattern Notes ~ Pattern as written requires a full ball of MC and very little of a second ball. However, if you wish to use only 1 ball of MC, you can bind off in CC directly after completing Lotus Chart, omitting the final 8 rows of MC.
Instructions for Flax Lace, House Lace, and Lotus Lace are both written and charted.
