This shawl features twisted stitches, cables, and lace which beautifully come together on a reverse Stocking stitch canvas to create an elegant shawl suitable for any party or evening out. It can be styled in many ways including scarf style, draped on your shoulders, bandana style, or can be worn as an elegant stole to highlight a gorgeous outfit. It’s as fun to knit as it is to wear and you’ll treasure this shawl for years to come!
