• Yarn: Suits lace to sport weight yarn in solid, gradient, or very gentle variegation/speckle/semi-solidity. This is the perfect opportunity to do a deep stash dive and polish your metaphorical halo/earn some smug points. Or not - no judgement here! :)
• Yardage is very flexible. The shawl can be bound off anywhere from r162 - r320 and beyond. Allow a minimum of 600m lace weight or 800m fingering weight, but if you have a 1600y skein, you will still be able to use it all.
• Choose needles that suit your yarn and create a gauge you like.
• The design can be worked entirely from the written pattern pattern, or from charts with notes.
• Shape: a wedge-constructed semi circle. Extra wedges can be added to make more than a half circle if desired.
• Sizing is adaptable due to the wedge construction and the extendable edge, so it can be as small or large as you like.
• Beads are an optional addition. As charted, there are up to 1720 beads, but if you don’t happen to need body armour, you can easily use less.
