The idea for this shawl came from a desire for a small but super warm kerchief to wrap up in throughout the autumn and winter months. The pattern is written for two different sizes, with either a small or large size, (but you could make your shawlette any size you would like!) and the yarn choice is also very flexible.

Finished measurements after blocking:
Small size: wingspan - approx. 119cm (47in); depth - approx. 45cm (18in)
