This pattern includes both written and charted instructions. The lace repeats are fairly simple--perfect for newbies to lace knitting. The half-hexagon shape of this shawl means that it hugs the shoulders and doesn’t slip off like shawls in so many other shapes do.

The pattern is named South of Broad for the romantic and historic section of Charleston, SC. Even though this shawl’s fiber content consists mostly of wool, the fingering weight and bright colors make it perfect for a warmer climate, such as that of Charleston.
