The Limeade shawl is a triangular shawl worked from the corner to the opposite side.

The body of the shawl is worked in the filet crochet technique using an easy to memorize and enjoyable “dotty-like” stitch pattern, which is broken up at the end with eye-catching rows of a fun zigzag pattern.

The zigzags are created with the help of post stitches made over a linen stitch background and they change the way the dots between them are perceived, creating a flowery effect.

The shawl is adjustable and can be made to any size by working fewer or more rows of the main (lace) stitch pattern as well as the adjusting the amount and width of the zigzag sections.
