When I first saw this 3-skein celestial set from Fall for November Yarns, it SCREAMED my aunt Sharon (who is like a mother to me), and I had to order it on Nadine’s beautiful MCN base - I wanted this to be an extraordinary gift for someone incredibly special to me. Thus, the Sharon shawl was born.

This show-stopping top-down semi-circular shawl keeps you busy from start to finish with engaging mosaic colorwork, textures, & lacework. Because yardage for each color/section is provided, you could easily turn this into an inventive scrappy project to have a special shawl unique to you.

Worked flat, Sharon contains written directions and charts. A handy-dandy progress tracker is included to help you with your rows and stitch counts.
