Featured Free Pattern: Ashton Shawlette

Great Free Pattern
Ashton Shawlette
by Dee O'Keefe

http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/ashton-shawlette


This is, hands down, a phenomenal free pattern.  If you are new to lace or shawls, it is a perfect place to start.  Dee O'Keefe put a lot of time and consideration into this pattern, making it a tutorial-as-you-go.  She gives step-by-step instructions, pictures, helpful hints and reference material for reading charts, lacework, and blocking.  I am currently working on another of her beautiful shawls, but I have made this shawlette and can attest to the generosity of information as well as art she shares in this free pattern on Ravelry.  (It's amazing it is free!) If you are looking for a nice project, perhaps for a holiday gift or maybe just for yourself as a fall accessory, this is a nice place to turn.  Also check out Ms. O'Keefe's other gorgeous patterns, they are all stunning!
