Five alternating rows of the Ichthys, or Jesus Fish, will remind the wearer of the prayers that soaked this gently ribbed gift during its creation.

This shawl looks best in a single color, or in a lightly variegated yarn with very long stretches between color changes. Rapidly alternating colorways are not recommended, as the eyelets that make up the Ichthys will be lost to the eye.

May God bless the time and love you put into this shawl.
