The Perfectly Pesto shawl is knitted with two very distinct yarns, one a richly textured Pebbles skein, the other is a Flamme skein in a thick and thin soft yarn, see the yarn link for details. The rectangular shaped shawl starts with the lace, it then moves in the middle body in relaxing stockinette stitches and the top band is done with a cool slip stitch pattern. There is plenty of interest in this project, so you won’t get bored.
The pattern is fully written and includes a lace chart as well.
The blocked shawl measures 57“ in overall length and 14” in height.

C1 - Pebbles, 160 yards with three yarns, 2 thick & thin and 1 lace strand in cottons and linen in a DK weight.
