Honey and Lavender Shawl
Honey and Lavender is a top-down, lightweight, crescent shawl knit in Tencel®, a type of rayon made from wood pulp cellulose. The fiber is light, soft, shiny and gives great stitch definition.
This design is a sister pattern of the Honey and Lavender Shawl (DK weight).
The shawl uses a simple honeycomb slip stitch pattern for the body followed by an open-flower like lace pattern for the border. The shawl is available in one size, but you can always customize the size by knitting with bigger needles/yarn or by increasing the number of pattern repeats in the body.
The pattern is both written and charted.
