Aetherios Shawl
Aetherios, the Greek root word of the English word ethereal, describes the light and lovely floral lace patterns of this spring shawl to a T! Worked in a half-circle shape with only a few increase rows, it’s a simple, engaging knit with just enough complexity to keep your needles clicking. The sport-weight gauge makes this shawl the perfect layering piece for cool spring and summer evenings.
