Feminine and elegant, this light delicate shawl is the perfect accessory to wear all year long.
The Lucy shawl is worked flat in a simple yet fun lace pattern, making it suitable for beginner knitters. This triangular-shaped shawl is started at the tip and increases are worked on one side until half of the total length is achieved. Then, a set of decreases is worked on one side to shape the triangle and create the other tip. Depending on the style you are looking for, you can wrap it once or twice around your neck. In addition, you can knot it at the chest for a more contemporary look. The pattern is easily adjustable to suit your preferred size or available yarn quantity.
