Lace Mantilla Knitting Pattern
With the courage to try lacework comes the most beautiful results, like with this mantilla pattern!
Lace knitting can yield some stunning finished products, and that's exactly the case for this Lace Mantilla Knitting Pattern. If you've never heard of a mantilla, it's a traditional veil worn in Spain and Latin America by people of various Christian denominations, and is probably the most stunning garment you've seen in a long time. Knit in worsted weight yarn, this pattern is a bit more approachable than those which use cobweb or lace weight yarn, but the finished result is just as stunning. While this may not be the best pattern for those just beginning their lace knitting journey, intermediate knitters will find themselves at home with the challenges.
