Interlace Shawl
A companion piece to Enmesh, this light layering piece utilizes the same stitch pattern with dramatically different results. A simple, sinuous lace pattern borders the upper edge and creates the centre spine. A deep border of zig-zag lace finishes this lightweight shawl.
Construction Note: Interlace Shawl begins with a lace “tab,” a common method for beginning top-down, triangular shawls. The tab begins with a provisional cast on. Once the tab is completed, stitches are picked up along its length and the provisional cast-on stitches are placed back on the needles.
