Inspiration for this shawl:
The moment I received this yarn, La Bien Aimée’s new color: Azulita, it made me think of beautiful gemstones, sparkling in a myriad of colors.
I designed a shawl with a geometric, almost crystal like shape, with diamonds and ridges, to capture this effect.
This wrap is worked from both ends towards the middle, so for most of it you will have to work 2 identical pieces, until you join everything together at the centre.
It uses two types of yarn: a single ply merino and a fuzzy blend of alpaca and silk in the same colorway.

FINISHED MEASUREMENTS
Approx. 76½“ 191 cm long and 18” 45.5 cm wide (after blocking).
