Agapanthus is a crescent shaped shawl, great for summer and very versatile. It can be wrapped all around upper body for an impromptu cardigan or worn in a usual way around shoulders.

The shawl is knitted top-down with a garter stitch main body, followed by a very easy lace border. It can be worked in any sock weight yarn or even lace weght for a lighter version. There are instructions for large and small size. For the large version I have used 3 skeins of Ella Rae Lace Merino and the small one would require two skeins.

The pattern is written only as it is a very basic lace. It is a very easy and fast knit indeed. It requires basic knitting skills, great for beginners of lace knitting.
