Limeade

The Limeade shawl is a triangular shawl worked from the corner to the opposite side. The body of the shawl is worked in the filet crochet technique using an easy to memorize and enjoyable “dotty-like” stitch pattern, which is broken up at the end with eye-catching rows of a fun zigzag pattern. The zigzags are created with the help of post stitches made over a linen stitch background and they change the way the dots between them are perceived, creating a flowery effect. The shawl is adjustable and can be made to any size by working fewer or more rows of the main (lace) stitch pattern as well as the adjusting the amount and width of the zigzag sections. **MATERIALS** - Malabrigo Mechita; fingering weight; 420 yards / 384 m per 100 g skein; 100% Superwash Merino Wool - Hook: U.S. E/4 (3.5 mm) - Yarn needle to weave in ends **YARDAGE** * 2 skeins in 035 Frank Ochre **GAUGE FOR SWATCH** * 23 sts and 10 rows = 4″ (10 cm) worked in lace st patt only (or plain dc st patt), after blocking.
