Artfully shaped with a style that is uniquely different, intriguing even. There is a relaxed sophistication to it and the yarn makes you feel like you don’t want to take it off. Seriously!

Modular knitting with two beautiful lace patterns, both are relaxing to knit and easily memorized. Connecting it all is a set-in triangle that moves the shawl into a different direction. Ending it all with a unifying top band with yet another interesting stitch pattern and a two contrasting colors held together stretchy bind off.

It’s pure fun to knit!

The blocked size: Length 81”, Height at triangle insert 19.5”.
