NOTES
GAUGE: 23 stitches & 34 rows = 4 inches; I had to go up three needle sizes to get a swatch near gauge, I erred the side of creating an oversized shawl.
CONSTRUCTION: This shawl is constructed from side-to-side. Due to the lace yarn and large needles, any mistakes are very noticeable.
RESOURCES
No resources used except the free pattern.
Final Thoughts
I only added fringe on one side of the shawl.
This is now my most worn shawl. It is cozy, very large, and warm. The neutral color goes with almost every outfit.
Next time:
I would omit the fringe - for variety sake.
I would consider knitting in lace weight Alpaca (update: yarn purchased for 2nd Virevolte shawl, Knit Picks, Alpaca Cloud, Jane, 2 skeins).
