This fun and flirty shawl can be made in your choice of yarn. Stripe it up or do it all in one color. It would look amazing in a fun ombre too. The finished measurements and gauge on this pattern are based on they yarn and hook size that I used. Your finished size and gauge will vary depending on the yarn and hook size that you choose. I’d recommend starting with a hook one size larger than your yarn recommends for a lacier look. Since the pattern is set up as repeats you can make it as small or as large as you like by simply adding or omitting repeat rows.
