A no-nonsense garter stitch shawl, Mrs. Peabody gets right to the point with an easy-to-work garter stitch and leaf lace border. The garter stitch body is shaped with short rows and decreases and finishes with a tidy i-cord bind off. Mrs Peabody takes very kindly to embellishment, and beads can be added in a variety of ways.

Gauge is not crucial for this project. However, changes might result in a different yardage requirement.
