Lotus Blossom Shawl
This exquisite shawl design features a stunning lotus blossom motif that begins at the base of the center petal, elegantly working outward as new petals are formed along the way. The design culminates with beautifully crafted garter stitch diamonds, which not only resemble delicate leaves peeking out between the flower petals but also effectively prevent the edges of the shawl from curling—a common issue with stockinette stitch.
SIZE

FINISHED MEASUREMENTS
