Via con me Shawl Kits
Kits for Via con me by Isabell Kraemer
Via con me is a symmetrical triangular shawl, worked back and forth from the top down with the yarn held double throughout. Starting with a garter tab cast on, stitches are increased every RS row at both edges and at the center of the shawl. Instructions for the lace pattern are written out (line by line) and charted. The combination of the cute and easy lace pattern and the wide textured border give this shawl a sophisticated yet casual look.
PATTERN: The pattern is NOT included in the kit but can be purchased on Ravelry.
