This pretty shawl is light and airy and can be worn in so many ways! Drape it over your shoulders with the opening in the front or the back. Pin it closed, or wrap the end over one shoulder. You can even bunch it up and use it as a scarf! Lover's knot designs look complicated, but they're really just a series of long chains and single crochets. The pattern includes a link to a tutorial. The instructions for the main section (not the edging) are provided in both written and charted formats, so you can see how the stitches come together. Because this is lace and is so open, your yardage and finished size may vary quite a bit. It will depend on how springy your yarn is, and how aggressively you block it. Mine grew from 36 x 60 inches to 44 x 72 inches just in the blocking.
