A long wingspan crochet shawl, with soft curved lines and a shallow midpoint depth resulting in a comforting double neck wrap, or graceful single neck wrap with long wingtip drop for statement style.

An easy, mindful four row repeat pattern rhythmically increasing then decreasing, from wingtip to wingtip. Incredibly versatile. Although designed with DK, it can be made in almost any yarn weight using a hook size of mid-highest range for that band/weight.

A quick, soothing and satisfying make, finished with cute tassels.
