Everly is an old Appalachian word for “always.” As I was designing and knitting this shawl, I kept thinking about how it was just the kind of project I love: a delicate lace edge, short rows to create the crescent shape, and an I-cord bind-off along the top edge. It’s something you’ll everly turn to when you want something light and airy to wear around your shoulders.

This pattern was previously available from Quince & Co. (and is still available from their website) but is now available direct from Mindy Wilkes Designs. The newly reformatted pattern includes new photos and charts. The pattern includes both written and charted instructions and has been tech edited.
