With its cotton candy texture lace, squishy garter and short rows, the Spun Sugar Sunset Shawl is sure to keep your attention at every turn! The perfect way to use up some of those “one skeins” you have in your stash.

YARN
Color A - Barnyard Knits “Fingering” in colorway “Shell”
Color B - Woolen Boon “Boon Classic” in colorway “Mint Julep”
Color C - Hey Sister Yarn Co “Allons-y” in colorway “Autumn Crush”

Unfortunately, at this time Hey Sister Yarn Co is no longer dyeing yarn, however either of the above bases would make an excellent substitution. If you are looking for a similar color to the sample I would recommend either Woolen Boon “Boon Classic” in colorway “Stay Classy” or Barnyard Knits “Fingering” in “Autumn Blaze.”
