Setting the stage is a great name for this crescent shaped shawl as you are constantly increasing in rows of Stockinette stitches to then finally setting the stage to a spectacular, yet easily knitted lace border.

Blocked size: Span of 84” in the bottom lace section, 17” in height, including the 4” height lace portion.

The pattern is written and has a lace chart.

Use up your stash or knit from a knit kit, either way you will thoroughly enjoy this project.

You may need a larger needles size, as I am a loose knitter. A gauge swatch will reassure you of the needle size needed.
