The Shh! Shawl is a cozy sister to the Shh! Wrap featuring carefree garter stitch and a touch of lace. Extra increase stitches at the edges give the shawl a generous wingspan, ideal for wrapping up in.

This shawl starts with a simple garter-stitch triangle. When the triangle is deep enough, leaves begin to grow down the center in a field of stockinette. The shawl finishes with a ribbon of garter stitch with pretty eyelet accents.

Although the pattern calls for aran-weight yarn, you can easily substitute worsted or DK. Just choose an appropriate needle size and repeat the lace rows until you are happy with the dimensions.

Instructions are fully written, with an optional chart.
