Spring is Here - shawl knitting pattern

Spring is Here is a semi-triangular shawl featuring a leaf lace border along one side. The shawl starts from a tip of the lace section and is worked sideways to the desired length. You can make it any size you want, from a tiny shawlette that is just long enough to wrap around you neck to a large shawl, by working fewer or more pattern repeats. There are two lace border width options. The pattern contains both charts and written instructions. 

Sizes

Wingspan: 108 (150) cm/42.5 (59) in

Size 1 (shown in purple) is a small shawlette with a narrower lace border - it is just long enough to wrap around your neck. Size 2 (shown in green) is larger and has a wider lace border. 

Irrespective of the border width you choose, you can make your shawl any size you want. (Any changes will affect yarn usage.)
