Notes

Love Love Love it! Easy as pie, but you need to add yo’s after the first stitch on the edges (dropped next row) or else you’ll have too tight an edge. I suggest using one size larger needles and a loose tension on the first mesh section. The first mesh section is the bottom/back of the shawl and it needs considerable stretch and slack to hang correctly. An excellent explanation of this is at this beautiful project: CharliGee’s Wave

The Blue Heron Metallic has such excellent drape - perfect for this pattern.

I finished the last 4 rows of the garter top edge with US4 for more of a hugging effect around the shoulders.
