The concept of this shawl was inspired by beautifully written music. Although a whole note is represented as a “hole” on a music staff, the sound of the note lasts for the duration of the entire measure. Design elements in this shawl include crochet chained loop cast-on and bind-off methods, right and left bias sections, large eyelets, slipped stitches, and rhythmic colors. The harmonious whole note motif is represented throughout the entire shawl.

Dimension: approximately 13” wide down center back and 76” long.

Fingering weight yarn: Main color A=350 yards; main color B=350 yards, and contrasting color=300 yards.
