Eyelet Shawl

Worked in one piece from the top down this shawl is the perfect introduction to shawl knitting. It works up quickly and easily in the Luma, with the beautiful blend creating a delightfully warm piece that can be easily worn across the seasons. This project walks you through a dedicated shawl cast on, the garter tab, and introduces you to simple eyelets and the joy of blocking to finish your shawl.
