Picture it Sicily 1922… such a famous phrase spoken by such an iconic legend. Mrs. Sophia Petrillo! The Golden Girls was a show I grew up watching, admiring, and becoming obsessed with. Sophia always stood out to me, both in the show and Estelle Getty in real life. My second daughter is named after her. She is strong, resilient, wise, funny, loyal, and very outspoken.

FINISHED MEASUREMENTS:
-70” tip to tip across the top,
-27” deep.

MATERIALS:
For this Shawl I teamed up with the lovely ladies from The Golden Purls. They dyed up colors that scream the show and characters in every way. This Shawl is worked up in a full skein of a Main Color (Picture It Sicily) (which represents Sophia who holds everyone together), and 3 Accent Colors (“Citrus Festival Ball”, “Get Real, Grandma!”, and “Enchanted Evening”) (Blanche, Dorothy, and Rose).
Size US 6 Needles, one Circular or two straights.
(1) Stitch Marker
Optional Blocking Materials, gram scale, and additional colors.

NOTES:
Picture It features lots of beautiful texture and gently rolling waves. Nothing too complicated, but enough to keep you interested. The added finishing touch of Binding off the entire bottom edge will clean up any messy looking edges from carrying yarns.
