Featuring GORGEOUS yarn from Etsy shop S.M.A.K. Super Fibers. This shawl was all about highlighting the yarn. I wanted a simple pattern that would showcase it’s lusciousness. Worked from the top down using the garter tab cast on. The pattern is simple to follow, makes great TV knitting and random eyelet rows add just a bit of interest.
