This amazingly economical shawl 43” square from only 4 ozs loses no warmth through its light weight. It is a fact that loose, airy fabrics hold more warmth than very closely knit ones.

The shawl is equally as lovely as an evening wrap, bed cape or baby’s shawl. It is quickly knitted on large needle in a charming “hole” pattern. Shetlanders call the holes “drops” as they resemble dewdrops in the early morning weather.
