All-Over Lace Faroese Shawl

HeartStrings knitting pattern #A16

Another of the popular HeartStrings Faroese shaped shawls, this time in an allover stockinette stitch lace version. The pattern begins with the center back neckband, then proceeds from the neck down in charming lace silhouetted heart motifs. Yarn over increases and the lace patterns themselves are used to shape the traditional center back panel, side panels, front bands, and fitted shoulders. This design adds a band of garter stitch at each side of the center back panel, giving further definition to the graceful lines of this shawl.

This was Kelly's first Faroese shawl and I am delighted she picked the All-Over Faroese Lace Shawl. The yarn is dyed in the Gradiance technique she developed for The Unique Sheep. Isn't it stunning! You can see more pictures and read the story on Kelly's Ravelry project page about how she began making the shawl for herself, but then it became "Wool Therapy" for her mother-in-law upon being diagnosed with breast cancer just as the shawl was being completed.


Rosemary S writes ...

Love your patterns! I am currently working on (and almost finished) the All-Over Lace Faroese Shawl in Slate Icelandic laceweight yarn. I have about 40 rows left, and I am enjoying knitting this so very much, I had to write to thank you for such a beautiful pattern. This shawl is an absolute delight to knit too, and thanks to you, I can read charts (my first attempt at this) without being scared to death about it :) Thanks again Jackie... I LOVE your work, and hope to be able to get more of your shawl patterns very soon.
