The August Pansy Shawl knits up quickly with only one skein of sock yarn! It uses 326 yards of SweetGeorgia Yarns CashLuxe Fine and a size US 6/4.0 mm needle.

The brilliant color of Sweet Georgia’s Cashluxe sock yarn reminds me of my favorite flower, the Pansy. August Pansy Shawl is a traditional triangle shawl knit from the center spine to the long edge. A simple knit on border completes the delicate edging.

Yarn substitution may result in a change in estimated yardage, gauge and finished size of your individual project.
