[All Knitted Lace] Janury Estonian Lace Shawl - pattern

[Rukodelnitsa]

Ta-da!
Here is the first of my planned 12 shawls with Estonian Lace Patterns (see this blog post for explanation). 

The January shawl features a classic twig pattern. This variation also have nupps. 
 

Here is a chart and key for the pattern (repeat in red):

 Twig Pattern with Nupps

Yarn used: KnitPicks Gloss Lace, 100 g
Needles: US 6 (4 mm)

How I did it:

• Cast on 91 sts, 
• Knit 6 rows, then work the body of the shawl as follows:
• Odd rows: k4, sts 1-3 once, sts 4-14 six times, sts 15-17 once, k4
• Even rows: k4, p to last 4 sts, k4
• Repeat 8 rows of Chart 52 times or to the desired length
• Knit 6 rows 
• Cast off all sts. 

Wash and block the shawl.

You can see that the shawl is pretty long!
The finished size:
16 x 79 inches
or, in metric system:
42 x 200 cm

Happy knitting everyone  - I am off to knit the February Shawl!
