Discover the charm of the Ripples Shawl designed by Nadya Stallings. This shawl only requires two skeins of luxurious Suri Alpaca, making it both elegant and budget-friendly.

This shawl is worked in two directions: the main body of it is worked sideways, from end to end with increases and decreases. Then the stitches are picked up from the bottom of the shawl to work the border.
