This shawl is the first in a series of designs especially created for the Oppenheim Wollfest in Germany. Inspired by the many mandalas we see all around us, this semi-circle crochet shawl is a perfect addition to your wardrobe. It has just enough lace sections to make it a little fancy, whilst still retaining a firm body structure. Worked from the centre top down, with increases on the sides only, it can easily be adjusted in size by adding or subtracting pattern repeats. If adding pattern repeats you may need more yarn.
