Skills You'll Learn: The Accola shawl pattern intricately incorporates size 6/0 beads that are skillfully placed on stitches, alongside charming nupps and double-sided beaded lace (using size 8/0 beads). To help balance the complexity, a generous portion of soothing stockinette stitch is included, ensuring a pleasurable knitting experience even for those tackling more advanced techniques.
Construction Details: The Accola shawl is expertly constructed from the bottom up, beginning with a stunning lace border that is worked vertically over a limited number of stitches. Once the lace border is completed, you will pick up stitches along its edge to commence working on the body of the shawl. The design elegantly concludes with a perpendicular bind-off that features additional nupps and beads, ensuring a beautiful finishing touch.
