Your Ice Cream Shawl

by Tetiana Otruta

Size: 6 sizes (see Table 1 below).

Skills: knit, purl, basic lace knowledge, stretchy bind-off.

Materials
 yarn: 364/436/514/606/691/789 yds
(328/392/463/545/622/710 m) of lace, light fingering
or fingering weight yarn (see Table 2 below).
 US5 / 3.75 mm needle;
 4 stitch markers.
Gauge
19 sts x 26 rows in 4” [Link]. relaxed after blocking. Gauge is
not crucial for this project but different gauges give different
finished sizes. Adjust yardage if you knit loosely.

Table 1: Estimate shawl sizes after blocking (based on my sample shawl with 9 body repeats). Your shawl
size may vary due to chosen yarn, needle or individual gauge.
