Acrobatic Dancer was designed for a lovely lady I had the pleasure of meeting. She is 90 years old and was an acrobatic dancer in her youth. She travelled with her dance troupe performing all around the area. She still walks and moves with such grace and beauty, I knew I had to capture it in my design.

Materials Needed:
450 yds fingering weight yarn (Main Colour)
45 yds fingering weight yarn (Contrast Colour)
4mm circ. Needle
51 6/0 beads
Crochet hook for beads
Waste yarn

The shawl begins with a provisional cast on, followed by a sideways edging. You then begin working from the edging up to the top with some simple short rows.
