The Nora Lace Shawl is medium size beginner-friendly triangular Tunisian crochet lace shawl with alternating stripes in two colours.
Natural animal fibers such as wool are best suited for this project as blocking is essential for this project to open up the lace and hold shape.
The shawl size is easily customisable by adding extra repeats of basic colour sequence.
Skills required
Chain, Tunisian crochet technique (alternating forward and return passes), Tunisian knit stitch (tks), Tunisian purl stitch (tps), Increase under front horizontal bar (inc A), Tunisian stitch pattern bind-off, weaving in ends, blocking.
Notes
Similar lace weight yarns may be substituted; please check gauge.
The shawl is worked with yarn held double (2 strands of the same colour).
The number of loops on hook equals the number of sts for row counting after Forward Pass.
The shawl is worked flat with RS always facing from bottom up and right to left.
The basic colour pattern is 15 rows in A followed by 5 rows in B.
Bind off row should be worked loosely to allow for the extra stretching during blocking.
Blocking the shawl is essential for this project as it opens up lace stitches and highlights the stitch pattern.
