I've had cause recently to go drooling over Ravelry's extensive collection of lace-weight crochet shawls and... oh man, there are some beauties out there! I am going to need more lace weight yarn to make more of these.
I picked one to make for the Sydney Royal Easter Show this year, but I also wanted to share all the stunning shawls with you!! I hope you love them as much as I do :D
They are in no particular order, and all pictures are from the pattern pages and belong to their respective owners.

ReplyDeleteNight's Shawl has been a fave of mine ever since I saw it on the cover of Interweave Crochet magazine years ago.
Good luck with the Royal Easter Show. After encouragement last year, I've been considering entering my work into a show too. Not sure that I will get there as it has never been a priority for me but I am curious to know how I'd go.
I'm sure you will do very well as your work is always of a high standard.
How many entries are you planning this year, Michelle?
Wishing you much success.
Thanks Jodie! I'm doing 6 entries this year, and I would absolutely recommend entering at least one thing, just to see what happens :)
