Chiffon Shawl PDF

PURCHASE INCLUDES STANDARD PRINT PDF, MOBILE ACCESSIBLE, AND LOW VISION ACCESSIBLE PDF PATTERN FILES. 
 
This asymmetrical shawl begins with an i-cord cast-on and alternates 2 different yarn bases in a growing chevron pattern while maintaining finished i-cord edges. The garter knitting is easy to get lost in while traveling, listening to a book or sharing time with friends.
 
The yarns used for this shawl design were just the right mix of textures but also happy colors. This design was inspired by an upcoming venture to Spain for a yoga retreat. I wanted something light and airy for the summer, but a bright accent to pop with any attire or location…a fancy dinner, touring a museum, or hanging on the water.
