As the sun goes down in the evening, the world is bathed in the glow of Refracted Twilight. This design uses mini skeins to play with the gradient colors of evening illumination, highlighted against the deep blue of the night sky. Lace chevrons dance their way across this asymmetric triangular shawl, which drapes beautifully across the shoulders when worn to create the perfect accessory for any time of day.
