Icelandic Spring Shawl

This charming lace shawl, designed by Hélène Magnússon in the colors of spring, retains the key features of traditional Icelandic lace shawls: the ever-popular spiderweb lace, wavy striped patterns, a lace-trimmed edge, and a boomerang shape, which is very emphasized here, allowing the shawl to sit beautifully around the shoulders. Knitted top-down on large needles and stretched generously thanks to Icelandic wool, it's a relatively quick knitting project and much easier than it seems! Have fun with the colors and join the growing group of serial knitters of the spring shawl!
