TARTLET SHAWL
Elegant and comforting, Tartlet Shawl draws inspiration from the beauty of a well-made pastry. Crimped edging frames the soft, layered fabric of plush garter and lattice lace accented with wrapped stitches and nupps. The result is a satisfying knit, delicate and indulgent.
The shawl is worked from the bottom tip up. The crimped edges along the right and left side of the shawl are knit together with the body, and the edging along the top is completed at the same time with the bind off. Choose between one of three sizes or knit until you run out of yarn!
The pattern is both charted and written out, videos for the trickiest techniques provided.
