The Empress Sunset Shawl is one of the new designs in my Summer Shawls & Sips collection, releasing throughout the Summer of 2024. Empress Sunset is knit holding fingering and Suri lace together. It is so very soft and light!

This triangular shawl has two sizes to choose from depending on your preferred way to wear. The eyelets and cable spine keep you interested while working your shawl body. The border is finished with a beautiful scallop shaped lace panel.
