Elegant and stylish with a spectacular lace border, this top-down semi-circularish shawl transitions from stocking stitch to the billowing border all in single rows. The flashy lac y edging is knitted as a finishing flourish before you bind off. Shaping is made by paired increases – for comparison: Tiong Bahru* is a bit more crescent-y than Bakau. written out line by line charted knit entirely from the charts or from the written instructions (or use both) There are two sizes to choose from, a generous shawl and a slightly smaller version (but rather bigger than a shawlette). The pattern can easily be scaled up or down. Stitch counts and calculations for this are provided. *Tiong Bahru is a suburb and subway stop on the East-West Line in Singapore – I just like the name. Tiong Bahru is also a simpler version of Boon Lay (another stop) which was designed as wedding shawl and gift. Show more
