This asymmetric shawl incorporates delicate eyelet rows of contrasting colour, adding either a bold splash of flair, or a subtle elegance depending on your colour choices.
Being knit on a bias, this shawl blocks out to about 85” wide, lots of length to drape around your neck or shoulders.
Meeting gauge is not essential, but variations will impact yarn usage and overall size. As well, a tighter gauge will result in a product with less drape and more structure.
