The new “Ruffles and leaves shawl”, a super lightweight rectangular shawl is just perfect to throw on this summer. The Pebbles yarn here makes it texture rich with a perfectly casual effect but it also has a touch of romance.

The shawl starts out with a pretty miniature leaves lace pattern, it then grows in simple stockinette stitches and ends with a fun bottom ruffle. The knitting is easy, enjoyable and your shawl grows quickly. The perfect weekend knit~

The blocked size 54” in length and 13.5” in height.

The pattern is fully written and offers a lace chart.

The yarn used
1) Our Pebbles yarn is comprised of three strands with two richly textured thick and thin cottons and a lace weight smooth yarn in a cotton/rayon blend. 160 yards a skein in a sport weight yarn.
