Morgenster is worked top down. The middle part of the body is worked in a simple lace pattern, with both sides in Garter Stitch. The random placement of beads gives the shawl a bit of a sparkle. The ruffled border is created by increasing every second row within the lace pattern. I recommend using stitch markers while working the border. The border part can be started at any RS row, making this an highly adaptable pattern.
