Dreamboat
Dreamboat is a gorgeous trifecta of texture, ruffle, and stripes! The body of this shawl is worked from the top down in a simple knit-purl textured motif and ends with a whimsical set of stripes. All of this is brought together with a lovely ruffle along the bottom edge. Its generous size makes it perfect for draping over the shoulders and arms to ward off a chill.
