Designed for our “Year of Unicorn” this pattern is free for our newsletter subscribers.

Knit with our magical “Unicorn” silk and mohair blend; this top-down, triangle shawl is a quick, single-skein project. The main body of
the shawl is stockinette, making it perfect for mindless knitting. The lace border appears more complicated than it is—it has a short
repeat and is easily “read”.
Remember the flowers that gave Mario fire power—the old school versions that had jagged tops? Those are mimicked in the elegant
lace border. Yup, Mario just got elegant.
