Late August

This beautiful pattern, designed using a modified version of Elizabeth Zimmerman’s Pi Shawl algorithm, can be knit up as a warm winter lace blanket, or as a lovely light lace shawl. Late August uses easy to remember lace patterns to make this project fun and easy!

This pattern includes instructions to make many different versions of this pattern. The original in lace weight and bulky weight, modifications for both weights to make it larger, and to either have the center as a lacy open flowing center or as a beautiful garter with eyelet center.
