Note: SSK- There are many ways to achieve SSK. I have presented a way that I discovered makes the stitch lay flatter, thanks “Knittinghelp.com". This Shawl has to be blocked in order for the lace to really Open up. Markers can be used or not. Since I was able to distinguish the center stitch I was able to knit without markers. Newer knitters however, should use markers. A circular needle was used to accommodate the large number of stitches that are used. Do not join in the round. Work is knit flat Slip Markers as needed..
