This eye-catching shawl utilizes a unique combination of increases and decreases, resulting in a shape that gracefully sits on your shoulders while offering a cozy wrap.

- Five Sections: 645 yards of fingering weight yarn (420 yards for the main color and 225 yards for lace inserts and edging).
- The optional wider lace edging enhances the shawl's elegant look and requires an additional 135 yards for six sections or 110 yards for five sections.
