Like the Fuyu persimmon fruit this shawl is named after, it’s fruity and succulent and suitable for a wide range of occasions. In this shawl, a delightful garter stitch lace based body is paired with a striped garter stitch border. The design is very flexible, therefore I’ve included modification ideas in the pattern.

This shawl is knitted from the top-down in one piece, starting at the neck edge with a garter tab. The instructions for the body patterning are both charted and written out.
