Cathedral Rose Shawl

This exquisite lace shawl pattern was inspired by the beautiful rose window of the Strasbourg Cathedral.

The shawl is knit in the round, beginning at the center and expanding outward to create a dramatic circular design. With its generous 68-inch diameter, this piece is large enough to wrap beautifully around the shoulders and would also make an elegant table cloth.

The intricate lace design captures the timeless beauty and symmetry of cathedral architecture. The pattern is fully charted and provides a rewarding project for knitters who enjoy creating detailed lace masterpieces.
