Nebulette Shawl

Nebulette is a delightful shawl that combines a simple mosaic pattern and gorgeous lace panels on a background of Stockinette stitch. The drape will melt your heart and the softness of this yarn will inspire you.

This celestial design is eye-catching but looks best with a contrasting solid and speckle, or two solid colours, but not two speckles or it will be too busy.

This shawl is a crescent shape that sits comfortably around your shoulders without slipping. It is constructed from the inner neck outwards.
