Materials Needed:
To create this exquisite shawl, you will need Lotus Yarns Forest Dew, which is a luxurious 2-ply blend consisting of 36% Angora, 30% Merino, 26% Tencel, and 8% Cashmere. Each skein provides 365m/400yds per 50g, and you will need 2 skeins in the stunning shade of 05 Grey. For knitting, use a 3.5mm (UK 10/US 4) circular needle that is 80cm (32in) in length. Additionally, you'll need Debbie Abrahams Seed Beads in size 8, color 56 Pewter, totaling 876 beads (2 bags). A 0.50mm (US15) crochet hook is required for adding the beads, completing the exquisite details of this shawl.

Size Information:
Upon completion, your Violetta shawl will have a wingspan of 145cm/57in and a depth of 62cm/24½in, providing ample coverage and warmth.
Tension Guidelines:
To achieve the best results, aim for a tension of 26.5 stitches and 19 rows over a 10cm/4in swatch in Chart B after blocking. While exact tension is not mandatory, keep in mind that variations in tension can impact the final size of your shawl and the amount of yarn required.
