Beginning with only a few stitches, columns of gracefully-curved leaves sprout from the edge of the Beanstalk Shawl, forming its triangular shape and climbing towards the bind-off edge. The shawl’s crisply textured lace includes increases and decreases on every row, but with the use of stitch markers between repeats the 6-row leaf pattern soon becomes rhythmic and satisfying. The Beanstalk Hat is a companion pattern featuring the same leafy lace.

Working lace increases and decreases on RS and WS rows, and knitting and purling through the back loop.
