Tendrilly is a contemporary lace shawl featuring a deeply textured cable and lace panel filled with graceful, organic tendrils resting on a field of reverse stockinette. The asymmetrical shaping begins with just a few stitches which then flow into a wide panel of swirling lines framing delicate cables. The remainder of the body is filled with sleek stockinette stitch, which provides a lovely contrast to the texture of the panel. The bottom of the panel flows into a delicate ribbing, which finishes off the entire bottom edge.
The first time I saw lace patterns that threw cables and reverse stockinette into the already fabulous mix of yarn overs and decreases, I was smitten. They seemed to combine everything wonderful that I loved most about knitting, resulting in dramatic texture that looked extra fancy and complex. The good news is that the lace pattern used for Tendrilly looks a lot harder to knit than it actually is! It’s composed of very basic stitches—knits, purls, simple 4-stitch cables, single decreases and yarn overs. And as soon as you might like a respite from the complex lace, you’ll switch over to relaxing stockinette.
While dimensions and yardage are provided for DK weight, Tendrilly could effectively be worked in worsted or sport weight as well. The shawl is offered in two sizes—medium (pictured in light gray throughout the pattern) and large (pictured in rust on the last page).
The Tendrilly pattern includes both charts and full written instructions for those of you who prefer not to use charts.
