Light and easy to wear, you can keep this shawl sweetly simple, or add a dash of colour and fun with a contrasting dotty border

Pattern Description
This pattern is for a triangular lace weight shawl, worked back and forth in rows. Details are given for two versions of the shawl. A shawl with a contrasting border and dangly dots, or simple one colour variation, which can be made using a single ball of Rialto Lace.*

Skill Level
Intermediate
Uses only basic stitches, a good introduction to crochet with lace.

Yarn
Shawl:
Debbie Bliss Rialto Lace:

1 ball is enough to make the one-colour version

For contrasting border only:
Lace weight yarn as follows:
YARN B - Pink (32 yards)
YARN C - Red (25 yards)
I’d recommend using thin embroidery thread if you have no spare lace yardage.
