Little Birdie Shawl is inspired by the darling Pink Robin bird native to Australia. Little Birdie Shawl is a rectangular shawl that plays with color & texture. The finished shawl is a layering piece that’s light as a feather. The shawl is worked in several sections to keep the knitting interesting. Draw inspiration from your favorite feathered friend by choosing 2 colors of fingering weight yarn. For an optional downy touch, choose a coordinating Suri alpaca lace weight yarn & hold together with the fingering weight to work the bands of garter.
