Seasons of Country Sophistication - Fall

This is a pdf file download for a knitting pattern for the shawl pictured above.

This lace shawl, worked as a Pi shawl from the center out, has the option of having sleeves or no sleeves.  The body is worked in one color and the edging is worked in a contrasting color.  As the crocheted edging is worked, the body stitches are bound off.  This is the third in a series of four, one for each season.  Welcome to Fall!
