A whisper, a dream, a barely felt caress. That lighter than air experience, where you are not quite sure if it’s actually real.

Careless Whisper is all this and more. It’s like a warm hug, a soft summer breeze, a glimpse of something, elusive.

Careless Whisper can be dressed up for a night out, or worn with jeans listening to music on a Sunday afternoon.

Careless Whisper comprises 100g skein of lace weight yarn and 100g of mohair.

This wonderful boomerang/vortex-shaped shawl has easy yarn over increases every row and a decrease every fourth. Making it an amazing easy shawl to make and wear.

The shawl contains eyelets and garter textured sections, just to break it up and add some fun and interest.
