Ciara Shawl is a lace shawl worked in a beaded lace pattern of diamonds on a background of Stockinette stitch. It is worked in three sections, creating a shape that drapes nicely over the shoulders. A beaded picot bind off creates a short and delicate fringe. Shawl can be made larger by repeating the diamond lace pattern.
