Valley Yarns Bluebird Shawl is an exquisite oversized classic triangle shawl that will elevate your knitting projects. This stunning piece features an intricately designed all-over lace pattern, beautifully complemented by a delicate leaf lace border. The shawl is crafted using Valley Yarns 2/10 Merino Tencel (Colrain Lace), combining the luxurious softness of Merino wool with the subtle sheen and drape of Tencel.
