The abundance of ways in which we can knit leaves is impressive. In this lace variation a bit of the stripyness distinctive of beech leaves was mimicked. The beech lace is made to fit on a wide triangle shawl, protecting from chilly winds like a nicely pruned beech hedge.

Fagus Sylvatica is a wide triangle shawl with increases in the lace motifs. The sample used roughly 600 meters fingering weight yarn, however the pattern is easily enlarged or made smaller, and could be worked in your preferred yarn weight.
