Notes

Looking at all the beautiful white Echo Flowers, I really want to make myself one. This is a VERY beautiful design and a lot less complicated than it looks. Thanks Jenny for offering it free.

I really enjoyed knitting this shawl. Like other knitters had noted, you just need to have sharp and tapered needles.

  • 8 repeats of flower chart
  • 7 stitch nupps - made with the help of a crochet hook
  • did the bind off double stranded on the wrong side knitwise as suggested by larisa and explained in more detail by alexist. This video is also very helpful in explaining the stretchy bind off knitwise.

I ran out of yarn and finished the last 5.5 rows and the bind off with some white yarn in stash. Could really tell the difference in the quality of the yarns.

I just can’t take my eyes off my white Echo Flower. ^ ^ Definitely have to knit a bigger size with bright color lace yarn.

Malabrigo Finito is such a SOFT and YUMMY yarn, it feels heaven against the skin. It’s expensive but worths every penny.
