CONSTRUCTION + FIT/EASE
The Great Granny Advent Shawl is constructed from the bottom up, with increases at the center and at each edge. It’s a fairly large, oversized shawl perfect for wrapping up on cold windy days, or for cuddling by the fire while you sip a hot drink.

YARN NOTES
I designed this shawl specifically for advent collections which consist of 24 mini skeins and one full skein, all in fingering weight yarn. I used the Classic Advent Set from McMullin Fiber Co, but really you can use any advent or mini skein set as long as you have enough colors and a 100g/400ish yard main skein.
