This delightful shawl is designed specifically for knitters who love to stay cozy while working at their desks, especially under the cool breeze of a ceiling fan. With a beautiful stockinette lower border, this shawl not only provides warmth to your arms but also serves as a chic accessory to complement any outfit.

The shawl is crafted from the center top and is worked downwards, making it easy to follow along as you go.

Keep in mind that while gauge is not critical for this garment, if your gauge differs from the recommended, you may need extra yarn to complete your project. Don't forget to gather additional tools needed for this project: stitch markers, a tapestry needle, and some waste yarn for a lifeline if you want to avoid any mishaps along the way. Get ready to cast on this lovely shawl that combines functionality with elegance, and enjoy the process of knitting as you create a stunning piece that you can wear around the house or out and about!
