Description
The Clairvoyant Shawl is a lace and dropped stitch
rectangular shawl inspired by fortune teller characters
like Madame Leota. I designed the shawl as a
rectangle for a longer silhouette to wrap yourself in
and added dropped stitches to add a little interest and
to make for a clean transition between multiple colors.

Difficulty
Intermediate

Needles
US Size 6: 4.00 mm circular needles with a 24-inch or
32-inch cord to accommodate the number of stitches.

US Size 6: 2 Double Pointed Needles for the i-cord
edging (they are completely optional but make
working the edging MUCH easier).

Other Materials & Tools
Tapestry Needle
Scissors

Notes on Yarn Choice
Because of the lace pattern in the body of the shawl, it
is recommended to use an animal fiber or animal fiber
and acrylic/nylon blend. The animal fiber would allow
for the blocking to open up the lace pattern nicely, and
if the animal fiber is something like alpaca which tends
to grow a bit over time, a blend with acrylic/nylon will
help the shawl keep its structure.
