This elegant shawl works up beautifully in gradient-dyed yarn or two coordinating colors. A slightly more than triangular shape keeps the shawl laying nicely on your shoulders, and the smaller size can be wrapped cozily around your neck. The lace edging is both charted and written, and creates a lovely scalloped border.
