Dandelion Days Shawlette
Dandelion Days is a lace shawlette, knit in one piece from the center-top outward. It starts out as a textured triangle knit flat and transitions to a cowl in the round. With both charts and written instructions, knitters will be able to choose their most comfortable way to follow the pattern. This is the perfect way to knit a shawl that will stay where you want it on your neck.
