This large, lacy shawl is the perfect amount of airy and cozy for unpredictable transition seasons that waver between cool and warm. The center of the shawl is worked in garter stitch, while the sweeping wings are worked in a straightforward eyelet pattern that’s easy to execute using the simplest short rows. What makes this piece unique, though, is its collar detail, elevating a simple accessory to a piece that feels more like a garment because it anchors nicely against the body when draped over the shoulders.
