The inspiration for this shawl is the return of spring. Rows of tulips, hyacinths and daffodils popping up in the garden signal the return of warmer weather. This shawl is the perfect accessory to wear for strolling in the garden when the temperatures are still a bit chilly.
This crescent shaped shawl is started with the border which is worked lengthwise, then stitches are picked up and the body is worked in garter stitch using short rows.

Pattern Notes
This is a crescent shaped shawl worked bottom up beginning with the border lace. Stitches are then picked up and the body is worked to the top using short rows for shaping.
All measurements are taken after blocking. Gauge is not critical but will affect the amount of yarn needed.
