The Beach Day shawl is a small triangular shawl with a simple lace pattern that looks like waves and seashells. The pattern is worked using charts.

The Beach Day shawl is designed to use only one ball of fingering weight yarn and one ball of mohair, so it’s perfect for leftover yarns. You can easily modify the size of the shawl by changing the number of chart repeats.
