CONSTRUCTION

The shawl is knit flat by casting on at one end & working across following charts for color & pattern changes.
Its easy to add your our flare as well by changing colors and pattern whenever you like.

The gauge is not critical, but looser knitting will need more yarn, while tighter knit might feel heavier and your finished size will be different.
