Like a breeze waves through a field of wheat, alternating bands of garter stitch and lace ripple ever so slightly across the body of Harlen Shawl.

Worked from the top down, this generous crescent-shaped shawl combines easy garter stitch with intuitive lace. Fingering weight yarns in solid or semi-solid colorways will show off the stitch pattern. The lace is feminine but not frilly, making Harlen Shawl the accessory you reach for every day of the week.
