This beautiful Shetland lace shawlette is made from one skein of either lace or sock yarn. In my samples, I used yarns with a silk content so that the drape and softness of the finished shawl is gorgeous! You will not be able to stop wearing it :smiley:

The lace version is knit in garter stitch to give it more body and stability and the sock version is made in stocking stitch with a garter stitch border.

I used a simple stretchy bind off, there is a video here if you’d like to try the same one.
