Worked from point-to-point, Sumire’s Shawl uses the most of a skein of lace yarn. This shawl takes the concepts from Geoui and adds some complexity, creating a lovely shawl that is delicate and beautiful. The shawl is named after the flowery patterns in the body and motifs; “sumire” means violet in Japanese.

Please note: This is an intermediate level pattern. The edging is worked as you go, allowing you to make the most of your yarn by working half of your yarn to the increases before decreasing. If this method of creating the edging as you go confuses you, please try Geoui first, which works on a similar concept.

This pattern is fully charted and written out. It is written in US terms.
