Queensway Shawl

A little Mohair goes a long way with this lovely pink cloud. Youll want to use every inch of the extra generous proportions to cacoon yourself in its marshmallow-soft textures, and youll have plenty of length to attractively drape your lace with a little fabulously studied nonchalance.

The Queensway Shawl is a rectangular shawl started with a provisional cast on, which is later picked up for the all-around lace edge. The unusual tuck stitches are used to create a diamond motif over a ground of reverse stockinette. Beads are placed to emphasize the tucked stitches.

This pattern includes both written instructions and charts.

Techniques used: Provisional cast on, tuck stitch, placing beads with a crochet hook, working simple stitch pattern from chart or written instructions, working simple lace pattern from chart or written instructions, slipped stitch, k2tog, yarnover, knit-on edging, picking up stitches, grafting.
