This shawlette, inspired by the Rhescyntis Machaerosema Morti moth, is shaped with short rows to gently wrap over your shoulders. No need for a shawl pin!

There are no exact measurements or stitch counts for this shawl, so you can easily knit a larger shawl by simply increasing the number of stitches in the first wing section. Gauge is not important - if you like a more open knit, use larger needles.

Please note*** You will not be able to block this shawl straight across the top. Be sure to let it swoop down at the edges. I blocked mine at the center first, then adjusted the wings.
