The Fragrant Shawl is a fun and fresh accessory, perfect for transitional seasons. Have fun with styling the asymmetrical shape or try wrapping the longest end twice around your neck for a kerchief style look. I recommend picking 3 colours you love, or two neutrals and a colour pop to knit your version out of, and watch how quickly those rows of delicate flowers grow!
