This shawl was designed to work with a variety of yarns at a variety of yardages to serve as an answer to the question of what to do with a skein or two of beautiful yarn bought on impulse.
The sample used a single beautiful skein of fingering weight merino/silk blend yarn dyed in a custom colorway for A Good Yarn Sarasota by Life in the Long Grass. If you love the color you can find it here.
Worked as a side to side triangle on a curving bias the shawl features a garter stitch body with a simple lace trim along the neckline. There are also lace details on the other two edges to make blocking a breeze.
