There are now two versions of this shawl, a chunky shawl knit with worsted weight yarn for chilly winters or a large lightweight fingering weight shawl for the summer.

Inspired by mountains and diamonds, this triangle lace shawl is fun and warm! The simple lace pattern is started at the bottom and grows as you knit. This lace pattern and the added fringe make for a bohemian sort of wrap, perfect for chilly mornings at the beach or evenings by the fire.
