I love crescent shaped shawls! They are incredibly easy to wear and style. Enter Wishbone Shawl. With its crescent shape and combination of garter, eyelets, ribbing and slipped stitches, this shawl has all the elements to keep you engaged while knitting! Knit in mYak’s fabulous Baby Yak Medium, this worsted weight shawl is soft and airy, making it the perfect compliment to any outfit all year long! I chose the beautiful and subdued Dusty Pink to ensure this shawl matched anything in my closet!
