Knit your own All-Over Lace Faroese Shawl using these clearly-written instructions by knitwear designer Jackie E-S of HeartStrings FiberArts.

This Faroese style shawl is knitted in a lovely all-over stotckinette stitch lace. The knitting begins with the center back neckband, then proceeds from the neck down in charming lace heart silhouetted motifs. Yarn over increases and the lace patterns themselves are used to shape the traditional center back panel, side panels, front bands, and fitted shoulders. This design adds a band of garter stitch at each side of the center back panel, giving further definition to the graceful lines of this shawl.
