This arch shaped shawl is for someone who likes a romantic touch of architectural regularity in lace. The lace edging has regularly lined up eyelets beaming out from a glittering queue of beads.

It can be made in either of two versions, a scarf in fingering weight yarn or a shawl in lace weight yarn. The shawl version has a slight shoulder shaping, to make it hug the shoulders and let the neckline follow the body if the shawl is attached with a broche or a shawl pin at the chest. It can be made glittering with beads, or stylish and elegant without beads.

Materials
Scarf Version: 100 g fingering weight yarn (450 yards), 210 beads (optional)
Shawl version: 100 g of lace weight yarn (700 yards), 294 beads (optional)


Den här bågformade schalen passar för den som tycker om håleffekter i regelbundna strukturer. Kantbården består av strömmar av hål som startar från rader av glittrande pärlor.

Den kan göras i en större variant – schal - i tunt spetsgarn, eller i en mindre variant – scarf - i sockgarn. Den stora varianten är lätt formad för axlarna, så att halskanten ligger bra om man vill fästa ihop schalen mitt fram. Den kan stickas med eller utan pärlor.

Material
Scarf: 100 g sock-garn (400 m), 210 pärlor (valfritt)
Schal : 100 g lace-garn (670 m), 294 pärlor (valfritt)
