This lace shawl knitting pattern contains written instructions (in English) as well as charts.

Tapering leaf motif and wavy edges give this shawl a wonderful drape. Crescent shape is achieved by working back and forth using short rows. I use wrap & turn technique, but if you’re not fond of it, you can just turn your work.

This one is beautiful with a summer dress.
