About this product
Trillium Lake by Kay Hopkins is a fun scarf with easy lace accents that’s sure to become a wardrobe staple. Wear it wrapped around your neck in any number of ways or simply drape it over your shoulders as a long, narrow shawlette. It’s perfect for many seasons including cool summer evenings… picture it with a summery dress, linen skirt or pants, and cute sandals.
The lacey stitch pattern looks impressive but is quite fast and easy to do. The construction is entertaining as it starts with just three stitches and is worked top-down in garter stitch with a couple of fun short row sections that make it long and narrow.
The eyelet stitch pattern is easy lace on a stockinette stitch background. The pattern is both charted and written…yes, every single row of the chart is written out and included at the end of the pattern!
This shawl looks best in yarns with little color variation due to the short row wedges in the body - although the wedges could be done in a different yarn color to make them really stand out. The lace border could also be done in a contrasting color.
The pattern is written for fingering or heavy lace weight yarn but will look great in sport or DK weight too. Check your stash and have fun choosing your yarn and colors.
Size and yarn usage will vary with differences in yarn and gauge.
This pattern has been professionally tech-edited and tested.
