I released a new shawl pattern on Friday. It's worked with a classic top down
construction technique. It starts from a small garter stitch strip of knitting.
If you are new to this technique I have a post with more detail here.
The lace pattern in this shawl is created with stacked hearts. They end with eyelets which
create a scalloped bottom edge. The entire shawl is charted. It can be made
larger easily by repeating Charts 3 and 4 any number of times before completing
the final chart for the border.
You can find the pattern here.
The name Lucilla Drake is a character from Agatha Christie's Sparkling Cyanide. The detective story has two versions, one a short story and the other a novel. The novel features Colonel Race as the detective while the short story uses the more well known Poirot. The novel
uses the basics of the short story, but changes a number of details as Christie rewrote her own work.
