Carte Blanche

Leap into lace and swoopy slick welts with Carte Blanche! > **The pattern for Carte Blanche is 30% off through April 25th! No coupon code > needed! Learn to knit lace with > me!!!** The shawl is worked from the top down, starting with a garter tab into a graceful semi-circular swoop. Lola’s Two-Timing Technique is used to create undulating welts—neatly packaged waves that dance alongside airy lace panels. As the shawl grows, welts and lace take turns, alternating with texture and negative space until it all comes together with an integrated lace border for the final flourish. Carte Blanche is knit with the dreamiest baby yak lace weight from mYak. Soft, creamy, and ethically sourced from Tibetan herders, this yarn is heaven on your needles. The pattern includes two sizes: the smaller uses one skein, and the larger uses two! Want help knitting Carte Blanche? No problem. I made you a full-length video tutorial to walk you through every swoop, welt, and lacy stitch. +[media title][3] > Like Laura’s designs and interested in > her clubs?
