This shawl is worked in blocks of Slipped Garter Stitch and two lace patterns, Daisy Stitch and Aster Stitch, with the intention of making a shawl that gives the effect of a summer breeze over an overgrown meadow full of flowers and grasses.

It was made using Wool is the Answer 4ply yarn in A Smidge of Magenta and A Smidge of Mauve as the contrast shades, using approx one-third of a ball each (approx 140m/35gms each). The main shade is a one-of-a-kind mixed summer flowers colour and used almost a full 400m/100gm ball. The needle size is 3mm and I used a circular needle approx 100cm long.

After blocking, the finished size is approx 90 x 150 cm.

Please note, because a proportion of this shawl is made with lace stitches it is strongly recommended that, to appreciate the full beauty of your shawl, you block it once complete.
