Description ~ Shetland Lace Patterns

Shetland lace shawls are legendary. They are light as air and many can fit through a wedding band. The shawls are usually rectangular in shape with a lace edging bordering all four edges. The edging is usually added after the fact but can be incorporated into the body for less seaming.
