June’s project in the BOBBOL 2013 Series
BOBBOL 2013 is the nickname for Bits of Beads/Bits of Lace, and expands the popular Bits of Lace 2012 Series with additional types of small lace projects and the addition of projects for building skills in beading.
For June, we knitted Dolly’s Top-Down Tri Shawl. This project is a great way to have fun learning on a small shawl before putting the time into a larger shawl. While knitting this dolly shawl, you’ll learn the basics of shaping a top-down triangular shawl with a knit-as-you-go lace edging bindoff.
Beads are placed while knitting using the crochet hook method (or you can just omit the beads if you want to).
The size is suitable for 18″ – 20″ dolls and teddy bears, making it a delightful gift for a lucky doll or teddy bear lover!

So glad you are looking forward to the Extra bonus. 🙂
I will eventually get to this today. You wouldn’t believe how many things are on my to-do list, lol. Thanks for your patience.
When it is posted (should be later this evening, but if not look for it tomorrow morning in case it doesn’t upload by then per your time zone), it will be the topmost article on the homepage of the site.
Hint: the adult-size (or any size) shawl starts with the same shawl instructions as a doll-size “Dolly’s Top-Down Tri Shawl”.
I wish for the June pattern. I cliked on the renew membership. Please enroll me as a member to your site so I can get this pattern. I am a cancer patient and don’t get online all the time. Don’t want to miss anything. Please do not post for everyone to see.
How adorable! I plan to make it in an adult size. Can’t wait to start it.
Thank you, Jackie.

BEAUTIFUL!
I tried an adult-sized triangular shawl that looks similar to this. No matter what I tried I couldn’t get one side to mirror the other. sigh. I gave up.
I’m going to try this as soon as I get a couple of other projects finished.
Thank you for posting this! 🙂
You are welcome. 🙂
There is no need to mirror this pattern, so maybe you will have better luck here.
Hurry and get those other projects finished so you can get started on your dolly shawl!
Terrific! My great niece loved the other doll shawl so I definitely need to knit this for her also. She’s a little young yet so maybe without beads. Love knitting lace.
Thank you, Jackie, for making this available to us. It’s adorable and a wonderful way to “swatch” for a larger piece.
Darling pattern! Thanks so much.
You are welcome so much.
Thanks for a darling pattern! The Tri-Shawl is just too cute!! Thanks so much!
You are welcome! Looking forward to seeing your darling dolly tri-shawl.
Is it possible to size this up to fit an adult?
Yes. 🙂
