Knitted Round Shawl

by Weldons

“Knitted Round Shawl” from Weldon’s Practical Knitter, Third Series (1886) and republished in Weldon’s Practical Needlework Volume 1.

“This elegant shawl, from the extreme lightness and beauty of its design, is sure to be a favorite with lady-workers. The pattern forms a nine-pointed star. Our model is worked with best soft white Merino wool, of which about 6 ozs. will be required and four bone knitting needles, No. 10.”

This pattern appears to be the one used by Jane Sowerby in “Victorian Lace Today” for The Cap Shawl
