Mermaid Spell
Mermaid Spell
Mermaid Spell is a triangular garter stitch shawl with a smattering of picots, and a triangle-and-diamond applied lace edging. Knit in one piece using Shetland construction and completely reversible, the shawl begins as a rather simple knit and progresses into something a bit more challenging.
Instructions are both written and charted, and the pattern has been updated to include a simpler garter scalloped edging in addition to the original.
This shawl was originally created for the 2018 Long Island Yarn Crawl
