Inspired by springtime cherry blossoms and by traditional Japanese fabric designs, Flora uses worsted weight yarn to make a suprisingly delicate romantic lace shawl. Incorporating 3 lace patterns, this shawl makes extensive use of cluster stitches to form pretty flower shapes.

Written in US terms, this pattern is suitable for advanced-beginner to intermediate skill levels. Includes written instructions and illustrative charts.

Materials:

450-500m worsted-weight yarn. Model shawl uses 5 skeins Pandora House ‘Tasmania Corridale’ (100% wool, 102m/45g)

USG-6/4mm crochet hook

Finished shawl measures approx 160cm tip-to-tip, and 85cm nape to hem, blocked. Can be resized by repeating first and/or third section.
