River Daisy is a beautiful little flower, pink on the outside, dark grey/purple in the centre. Just like this shawl

Lightweight and easy to wrap around your neck, this shawl is a fun knit for summer. The lace is pretty straightforward and garter sections are perfect for Netflix knitting. The bottom of the shawl is shaped with a few shot rows, but fear not, no need to pick up the wraps as they don’t show in garter stitch!
