• This beautiful shawl is expertly knitted from the top down, starting at the neckline for a comfortable fit. Designed to be a little more than a half circle, it will gracefully sit on your shoulders, making it a perfect accessory for any occasion. Unlike many shawls that are worked side-to-side, this unique construction offers a flattering drape and structure.
• For this project, I’m using one skein of Dream In Color Baby yarn in the vibrant shade of Punky Fuschia, paired with size 6 (4mm) needles. As is common with many lace-knit projects, a semi-solid or solid color yarn will showcase the intricate patterning most effectively. Dream In Color Baby boasts an impressive yardage of 700 yards per skein and weighs 113 grams (or 3.99 ounces). While it's labeled as lace weight, many knitters prefer to describe it as a light fingering yarn, offering the perfect balance between weight and delicacy.
