My closet has been in need of a mustard shawl for years, so when Frenchie posted this (absolute stunner of a) pattern on Instagram? I knew that it was TIME.

I would love to have knit this one in linen per the pattern’s recommendation, but am fully committed to my no-new-yarn-in-2021 resolution. Thus: Some sport-weight wool that I acquired back in early 2016. Due to concerns about my yardage, I dropped one stockinette panel from the final stockinette-garter section and shortened my tassels to 6” (versus 10”), but made no mods aside from that.

Absolute shawl perfection.
