Wrap up in Valley Yarns Smitten for a shawl with a winning combination of snuggly warmth and elegant lace. A straightforward project, Smitten is knit flat in one piece with an arched lace border that transitions into a diagonal eyelet lace. The openness of the lace patterns is complemented by the warm worsted weight Wachusett yarn, a velvety soft blend of Merino wool and cashmere with top-notch coziness. Cuddle into Smitten on a chilly morning at home or add it to an outfit for the office for extra color and warmth! Lace patterns are both charted and written out.
