The Mill Lake Shawl is an easy, yet elegant, crescent shaped shawl - perfect to dress up those cool summer evenings. I was inspired by the need for an easy wearing shawl for my early morning and evening walks around the lake. The blend of cotton and linen make for a great spring/summer garment, though can be made in any yarn of your choice.
