Piura
Lace shawls don’t have to be worked in lace weight yarn. The chainette construction of this yarn and the loft of alpaca make for a pretty accessory with the femininity of a lacy shawlette but the warmth you need on a chilly day.
The shawlette uses two full balls of the suggested yarn when worked to pattern gauge. If you cannot get gauge, or if the balls of yarn you have may be a little underweight, you may wish to have a third ball available just in case.
The pattern is meant for experienced or adventurous intermediate knitters. Each chart only shows one half of each row. You should work all chart rows from right to left across the first half of the shawl and then back from left to right on the second half of the row to create a mirror image.
You will need: Valley Yarns Peru x 2 balls, size 7.5mm needles, 4 matching stitch markers – Markers A, darning needle for weaving in ends, you may also wish to use optional 4 further matching stitch markers different from markers A – Markers B
You need to be able to: work lace from a charted pattern (lace pattern is CHARTED ONLY), work common increases and decreases
