I have designed a versatile shawl that suits every season of the year! Knitted in simple lacy stitch within a simple triangular design, this project is also ideal for beginners. Please welcome Flaxynet shawl.
Design overviewKnitted with easy to memorize lacy stitch, the shawl has triangular shape. Simple eyelets create a beautiful drapery fabric with exquisite texture. The knitting starts from bottom corner up which allows for adjusting of length ranging from small bandana or shawlette to a large shawl. You can add tassels to the shawl’s corners or fringe along the edges for an extra special look. You can even use your Flaxynet shawl as a sarong. The design offers so many possibilities!
Yarn choice
Flaxynet shawl is knitted with 5-ply/sport weight linen yarn, which makes it perfect for warm weather as well as for transition from summer to autumn. It can be also knitted in cotton, wool and any yarn blend. In addition, you can use thinner yarn for more delicate fabric or heavier weight for more rustic cozy look.
My sample is knitted with Antigone by De Rerum Natura in shade heron.
