Made with Indigo Moon Yarn’s hand-dyed BFL, this lace-edged shawlette is the perfect accessory when you need something over bare shoulders in an air-conditioned office or on a cool summer night. Then, when winter sets in, it will fit into any wardrobe as a scarf.

The wide span ensures it drapes over your shoulders and stays where you want it or allows you to wrap it loosely, but warmly, around your neck.

The side-to-side stockinette construction incorporates the lace edging as you knit and allows for customization when you want to make the most of a single skein of yarn.
With the I-Cord beginning and end, and the intentional 3-stitch roll along the neck edge, this shawlette is all softness.

NOTE: Yardage may be an issue if this project is knit at a different gauge. To determine how many repeats to complete through the backspan, weigh your skein prior to starting and again after completing the increase section. Calculate your usage, multiply by two and subtract that number from the beginning weight of yarn. The remaining number is how much you can use for the backspan.
For example: if you used 35 grams to complete the increase portion, you will need 35 grams to complete the decrease portion. You will have 30 grams to use in the straight portion.
