This is a Shawlette version of the Parasol Stole, with a single border and a gentle curve formed by the decreases that flow into the ribbing. A very quick & satisfying weekend knit.


There are both written and charted instructions. The chart is laid out in lots of sweet colours for your enjoyment and ease of knitting.

Please also watch this video for a demonstration of how to work the central decreases along the edge.
