Barn shawl
The Barn Shawl is a simple and quick lace shawl worked in yarn ranging from DK to worsted weight on large needles. This creates a light and airy fabric, especially when made with the lofty Barn DK yarn by Susan Crawford.
The shawl features a simple Estonian lace pattern that is repeated throughout the shawl. The lace instructions for this is both charted and written in the pattern.
