This beautiful and easy to wear asymmetrical shawl will softly lighten your mood up on rainy days, with its subtle springtime colours and delicate lace flower pattern… The pretty lace adds a little texture and only runs along one side of the shawl, to keep the knitter’s mind entertained, while the large Stocking Stitch section highlights the beauty of hand dyed wool, and makes for a quick, simple, yet interesting knit, that can be worn all year long in a variety of ways…!

The pattern features both charted and written instructions.

Knitting Tension/ Gauge:
Tension is not critical at all for this project, but it is not recommended to knit the shawl too tight, it will affect its overall drape. Tension on the Reverse Stocking Stitch Section is 16st x 32 rows using the recommended needle size, before blocking.
