Seraphic Shawl

Seraphic is a heavenly, sophisticated crescent shaped shawlette, knit in sumptuous Malabrigo Sock Yarn (or equivalent fingering weight yarn).

Starting at the outside edge of the lace border, the shawl is knit from the bottom upwards, and shaped with easy short rows. Using larger needles than the yarn calls for results in a light, open and drapey piece. Perfect for a special skein of yarn, make it for someone special - you!
