Inspired by New Jersey summers, this breezy shawl is the perfect thing for knitting by the beach. The half-pi construction combines with lots of stockinette stitch and simple eyelets for a relaxing project, then adds a bit of lace at the end for extra interest. Some optional beads add a bit of sparkle to the rays of sunshine. Knit in the delightfully soft and breathable Silklin, it’s the perfect shawl for keeping off the A/C chill and the scorching sun.
