Chantilly Shawl

The Chantilly Shawl is a frothy confection of delicate lace knitting in garter and stocking stitch. Traditional patterns including some Shetland lace motifs, combine to create a rich, yet very feminine appearance.

The shawl is worked by casting on three stitches at the middle top, then increasing at the sides and middle to create a triangular shape. It is finished with a Point d’Esprit garter edging, worked sideways and attached to the live stitches of the shawl to bind it off. Some lace patterns have lace shaping on every row. NOTE: Fiddlesticks Knitting patterns are charted. Recommended for Experienced lace knitters.
