Check out This Site
I love free patterns and one place I check regularly is Knitty.com. It is full of free pattens and features. The most recent copy had some really lovely shawl patterns.
This design is named Omelet and there are no cooking skills needed. Omelet is a half circle shawl with a garter stitch border that is knit from center back to the bottom edge. Yarnovers at each end and between panels are used to form the shape. Increases are worked every four rows on right side only.
This design is called Forest Ridge. Forest Ridge is a good introduction to lace, with one easy body motif where every other row is straight purling, so don’t be afraid to get started if a newbie with lace knitting.
The site also has some great competitions to enter. All the information on entering is on the Knitty Blog.
Happy knitting everyone…..
