Choose your favourite contrasting colours, show off a special gradient skein, use up your treasured scraps with a new colour for each section, or simply stick with a single colour to create this impressive shawl that is addictive to knit and practical to wear. The Sea Urchin Shawl is worked end to end and is readily adapted to make smaller or larger sizes. Stitches are picked up along the top and bottom edge to add the eyelet border.

Suitable for adventurous beginners, techniques include: simple short rows, picking up stitches, simple increases and decreases.
