Modern lace and almost nine hundred sparkling Swarovski crystals create the enchanting Waxwing Shawl.  A versatile and easy to wear crescent, Waxwing Shawl features a very simple geometric lace pattern throughout the body with a more intricate beaded border.  This beautiful pattern is one of many wedding patterns found in Interweave Knits Winter 2016. 

The shawl is knitted in one piece starting at the center top and grows through rapid increases along the top edge. The edge is beaded along the increases to balance out the beaded bottom border; however, all the beads are optional and the shawl will look just as great without them (890 Swarovski crystals or 6/0 4.00mm seed beads).  The beads are placed with a beading hook to avoid pre-stringing.  The easy two-row lace pattern uses only basic lace stitches on the right side and purled wrong side rows, which makes this a perfect project for a beginner lace knitter or a quick project for a more advanced knitter

This gorgeous shawl can be passed down through generations of brides. 

Gift Set includes Interweave Knits Winter 2017 (pattern inside), selected yarn & 890 Miyuki 6/0 clear seed beads. Please click to order size 13 /.9mm crochet hook for attaching the beads.  If you prefer a kit without the beads, please contact us for pricing here.  For yarn winding services, click here.
