BEAUTIFUL SPIDER LACE SPINNER'S BEADED SHAWL to KNIT in MOHAIR or SPORT WT YARN

THIS IS A LEAFLET FROM FIBER TRENDS CALLED SPINNER’S LACE SHAWL, DESIGNED BY EVELYN CLARK.

THIS REVERSIBLE GARTER STITCH LACE SHAWL CELEBRATES ARACHNE FROM GREEK MYTHOLOGY AND SPIDER WOMAN FROM HOPI AND NAVAJO LEGENDS.  THESE ANCIENT SYMBOLS ARE EMBRACED BY SPINNERS, AS WELL AS WEAVERS, LACE MAKERS AND OTHER NEEDLE ARTISTS.

THE SHAWL IS KNIT FROM THE CENTER BACK NECK DOWN, AND THE SIMPLE SPIDER LACE FLOWS INTO A SPIDER IN A WEB BORDER AND EDGING.

THE SPIDER LACE REPEATS OVER 10 ROWS SO IT IS EASY TO MEMORIZE.  THE BORDER CAN BE STARTED AFTER ANY MULTIPLE OF THE 10 ROW REPEAT, MAKING IT VERY EASY TO CUSTOMIZE THE SHAWL’S SIZE.

THIS SHAWL LOOKS GREAT IN A WIDE VARIETY OF SIZES AND WEIGHTS OF YARNS, AND BEADS CAN BE ADDED TO THE LAST EDGING ROW IF DESIRED.

                                                                                        72 INCHES ACROSS THE TOP EDGE.
