Having recently watched Rococo Before Bedtime, I dub this shawl Omorfiá. It is the Greek word for beauty and lest we forget, the Rococo era - “it wasn’t just frilly and pink. Rococo was all sorts of other things as well…wider achievements, its punch, its determination, its intoxicating beauty. Yes, it was frilly and pink at times, but not always and never for nothing!” -Waldemar Januszczak

This is a small crescent shaped shawl with bold lace motif designed specifially for Wolle’s Yarn Creations in Cotton or Glitter. Be sure to pop over to instagram and follow Wolle’s Daily Yarn Specials and me. Tag your project #bunnymuff!

This shawl is worked from the top down with beads (optional - approx 500 sized 6/0). The pattern is both WRITTEN AND CHARTED for your convenience (though you may need to move sts markers as you go to compensate for shawl growth). This pattern contains 2 sizes, the smaller may be worked with 100g and the extended chart with 150g. If you are a loose knitter and choose to work the smaller shawl, you may want to get a 50g skein along with your 100g skein, achieving a fuller colour change over your shawl.
