A gorgeous long rectangle shawl-blanket style wrap! It has very simple stitches and easy to knit while watching your favorite tv show! Easy to wear, and classic style. It’s also easy to select yarn for this pattern! I have some gorgeous kits available on my website, you can also choose your own!

I designed this shawl for my Advent Calendar 2019 “One Hit Wonders of the 80’s and 90’s” but it is also available to non-advent purchasers!
