Bring a little extra luxury and comfort into your knitwear collection with Westcott, a versatile lace shawl knitting pattern with striking back panel detail and optional crochet edging.

Knitted on 5mm (US 8) needles for a project that won’t hang around. Add a gorgeous pin and inject a final touch of glamour into those days when you’re not ready for your winter coat. When you need a hug, you need a hug – and that’s how it feels when Westcott is draped over your shoulders.

4mm crochet hook needed for border
66cm at deepest point
164cm at widest point

800m of yarn in total is required for Westcott if you’re knitting with a single strand of laceweight yarn.

If you’re planning to run two laceweight yarns together, or hold them double, as I have done in the photographed sample, you will need 800m of each yarn.
