I think all designers' favourite pattern is their newest release, but this one really is my favourite one to date. I was inspired to create it after following Miriam Felton's class on Craftsy, Lace Shawl Design, which I can really recommend if you want to learn how to start creating your own lace shawls. It's not for the beginner knitter, but if you have some experience of knitting shawls, it shows you how to design different shapes, add borders, chart lace stitch patterns and transition from one stitch pattern to another smoothly.
Despite being an experienced knitter generally, and having a number of shawls under my belt (figuratively speaking!) in all kinds of shapes, I wasn't sure where to start when it came to planning my own. I was especially clueless about how to get one lace stitch to flow into the next without it looking like I'd bolted component parts together. I'm a lot more confident doing that now.
This pattern, like all my others, is available through Ravelry.com directly or through the Pattern shop link on the left of this page.
