The Full of life shawl was named for the inspiring colors in the single Y2GO Element skein used to knit this beauty.

Knitted from the bottom up, a gorgeous lace border is the focal point of your shawl, relaxing Stockinette stitches keep you happy for the main body and finally, the textured seed stitch border adds the finishing touch.
The stretchy bind off method makes sure you have extra room at the top of the shawl. The shawl feels super light and airy when knitted with the yarn as shown~

The blocked measurements are: 59” in length and 13” in height.
The pattern is written and charted as well for your knitting pleasure.
