At the Ballet Shawl

This charming picture lace shawl captures the grace and beauty of ballet with delicate images of two ballerinas and elegant toe shoes.

The shawl is created from five individual panels—three featuring ballet shoes and two featuring graceful dancers. Each panel is knit separately, allowing you to enjoy the progress of each beautiful lace image. The completed panels are joined together with connector strips, and the elegant border is added last to complete the design.

The pattern is fully charted and is a delightful project for knitters who enjoy picture lace, artistic designs, and creating unique heirloom pieces.
