This shawl appeals to knitters of all levels. It’s a great choice for an adventurous beginner to learn some simple lace thanks to the oversize eyelet lace and simple lace border, and it’s equally a great choice for a more experienced knitter because the pattern is easy to memorize which means you can take this shawl on holiday or out to a stitch night and not have to worry about following a complex pattern!
