This lovely lace shawl designed with the colors of spring retains the main characteristics of the traditional Icelandic lace shawls: the very popular spider lace, undulating striped patterns, a lacy edge and a boomerang shape but here very accentuated making the shawl sit beautifully around the shoulders. Knitted from the top down on big needles and stretched extensively - thanks to Icelandic wool - it’s a rather quick knit and much easier than it seems!

Pattern has charts and full written instructions.

The pattern offers 3 diffferent color combinations for radically different effects. You can also make you own!
