Sparkling and elegant, this gorgeous shawl looks intricate and difficult, but is actually quite easy to knit. The beautiful tree design is created entirely with beads, meaning this entire shawl is created using only knit, purl, and simple increase and decrease stitches. The unique and dramatic use of beads coupled with the simple knitting stitches makes this shawl ideal for newer knitters looking to expand their knitting skill-set.
