Babunia Shawl
Babunia means Granny in Polish. This shawl is inspired by the traditional Slavic headscarves often worn tied under the chin by our Grandmothers. The fluffy mohair combined with the lace pattern creates an angelic look and keeps away the cold wind and rain. Wear it with a leather jacket or wool trench to make every winter look feel special.

This pattern calls for 200 m of a fluffy mohair/alpaca yarn
Yarn recommendations:
100 g of Ballerina Chunky Mohair by Sandnes Garn or
50 g of Brushlight by Cardiff Cashmere
SIZE:
one size = 47 cm x 115 cm
GAUGE:
17 stitches x 32 - rows = 10 x 10 cm in lace pattern on 5 mm needles
