This is a nice looking shawl. I like when the info is given to make a shawl wider or longer. I like to make my shawls at least 18-20 inches wide and it is helpful to know the pattern repeat. Thank you for that info. This will be my next project.

This seems a fairly easy pattern to follow. The end result is a lovely shawl which you can wear, like it says, from daytime to evening. I like to add shawls as part of my outfit in the office and in the evening. You can also drape them over a jacket or coat when you go outside and it adds a nice touch. Good thing about the yarn mentioned, it is inexpensive and looks quite the opposite. Thank you.
