Take the basic triangular shawl to the next level with a nine-pointed shawl. Drape it evenly over your shoulders for an elegant statement (the shaping ensures it stays put) or style it your own way every day – Augusta is practical, timeless, and unique.

Note: This shawl was designed to take maximum advantage of a precious skein – please check your blocked gauge swatch carefully to ensure that you won’t run out of yarn.
