This pattern has now been updated to include DK yarn as an option, giving you even more choices in how you knit this shawl!

Wrap yourself in a vortex shaped garter stitch shawl in two colours.

There are two sizes to choose from for the 4 ply version and a DK version now as well and options to help manage your yarn usage.

Slip stitch patterns, stripes and eyelet lace techniques make this a fun and engaging pattern to knit.
