First Blooms is a light and airy one skein wonder for fingering weight yarn. It has a beautiful all-over eyelet pattern that’s fun and easy to knit. And there’s no purling!

The lace is worked on the right side only, and the pattern is easy to memorise after the first few rows. The picot bind off adds delicate detail to the border.

You work this asymmetric triangle shawl diagonally from one tip to the opposite edge. The size is easy to modify. Simply work the pattern repeat until you reach your desired size.

YARN
One skein of Eden Cottage Yarns Hayton 4ply (80% merino, 10% cashmere, 10% nylon; 350 m / 380 yds per 100 g). Shown in colour Ice.

This shawl is worked flat, but I recommend using 80-100 cm / 32-40 inch circular needles to accommodate the growing number of stitches.
