Crooked Walking Shawl <br/><small>knitting pattern</small>

A very Victorian shoulder shawl in three sizes (Petite/Medium/Tall), to knit in heavier laceweight or light fingering yarn. The cozy yoke is worked in garter stitch with shoulder shaping and finished with a tiny stand-up collar and lace edging at center front edges. The solid fabric opens into a zigzag lace motif for a stunning openwork hem that can be worked in a variety of lengths according to yarn supply. Striking as it is, this piece is simple enough to make a great first shawl project or a pleasant traveling companion.  Suggested Yarns:  Cormo Lace, Modern Deco Lace, Better Breakfast Fingering, Stone Soup Fingering, Shetlandia Fingering, Jacob Fingering, or any smooth laceweight yarn which has approximately 200 yards per ounce.  Substituting yarn and/or needles will result in an overall variation in size.  Finished Size: 16(18, 20) inches around neck, 14(17, 20) inches across the shoulders, and 15(20, 25) inches long at center back (stretched and blocked)Yarn Requirements: 500(850
