Cowgirl charm meets modern simplicity in this versatile wrap. The intriguing lace edge leads to a garter stitch center, allowing for a beautiful look in both solids and variegated colorways. The lace panel features a fun, scalloped edge that gathers together with horizontal clusters that mimic the texture of the garter stitch. Written for both fingering and worsted weight yarn, the finished look can range from a delicate shawl to a larger, more rustic wrap. Perfect for beginning lace knitters and those looking for a quick knit, the Parachutes Shawl will leave you longing for the prairie at sunset.
