Made for all those shawl size queens out there! (raises paw)

This shawl is made with a simple, soothing texture pattern that flows into a simple border. The asymmetrical shape makes for a shawl that is easy to wear and to maximize the drape factor!

You can use either DK/Worsted or even fingering held doubled!

Designed with your stash in mind, you can grab 1, 2, 3, or 5 skeins of DK and just go and have fun! This gives you all kinds of sizes and yarn opportunities!

This also allows you to have fun supporting indie dyers and their art! You can grab a medley of colors and bases and just have fun!
