Light as a breeze yet surprisingly warm, this shawl can be worn year round. The pattern highlights the contrast between smooth stockinette and a deep edging of lace. The winged crescent shape is achieved through fairly aggressive blocking.

This shawl is worked flat from side to side, with shaping in the stockinette portion only. The lace cable stitch keeps the knitting interesting without being too difficult. All edges are finished neatly with borders of garter stitch, making for an enjoyable knitting experience with minimal finishing—just weave in the ends, block to shape and go!

Lace patterns are written and charted.
