Far Away Dreams

Far away dreams…
Are you looking for a project that you can just start and knit mindlessly for a looooong time before having to think about it? I know I am!
I hope this will be something that you like.
This shawl is worked in 2 stages. The first section of the shawl is a simple rectangle in garter stitch worked flat. When you finish this section you must pick up sts all around it and work the lace border in the round.
It uses 2 colors. Try coming up with a fun combination to lift you up! I know I always feel better when I knit with colors that I love.
