The Nydnings Shawl is an exclusive and large shawl, knitted in garter stitch with a beautiful lace patterned edge. The shawl can be used as a wrap, a giant scarf and can even be tied around the waist to act as a soul warmer.
The Nydnings Shawl is knitted from tip to tip with a decorative and discreet lace pattern along the outer edge. It is knitted back and forth in garter stitch with different increasing and decreasing phases that shape the shawl.
There are links to relevant video guides in the recipe if you need help with the techniques.
