Shoals is available as a pair with Shore. They’re both lacy, crescent-shaped shawls formed using short-rows and decreases. Shoals is shallower and has a stocking stitch body. She’ll knit up very quickly in a day or two, so you can have your summer shawlette finished in a weekend! Worked in a bright, vibrant colour she makes a graceful accent for your travel wardrobe.
