Big Embrace is a large, three-color, top down triangular shawl made of three different textured sections, divided by garter stitch accents. Increases at the sides of each row help the shape of shawl to stay around your shoulders easily.

My sample is quite big: 212 cm wingspan, 82 cm center depth / 85’’ wingspan, 32’’ center depth, but the shawl can be easily made smaller (or larger - resizing instructions are provided).

I used about 170 meters of color A, 280 meters of color B and 380 meters of color C
