I knitted my shawl from a knit kit available at Yarnz2go open 24/7 online.

The Splashing waves shawl has you covered, in a crescent shape and a kaleidoscope of colors. The pattern is reminiscent of waves crashing ashore on a tropical beach!
It’s fun times all the way!

The colorful stripes create the main body which is worked from the top down. The shawl increases steadily right to the bottom lace portion which is knitted with another sport weight yarn. It sure makes for a wonderfully light weight cover up.

The pattern is fully written and also offers a lace chart.

The blocked size measures 61” in overall length and 13.5” in middle height.
