Rhythmic lace, simple shaping, and gorgeous yarn are all the ingredients necessary for the perfect springtime shawl, and Helmsley is just that. Worked in Vireo, a lovely blend of Tencel and wool, this shawl features fabulous drape, a subtle sheen, and stitch definition that makes the lace motif simply pop. The easily-memorized lace pattern is balanced out with soothing stockinette, and simple decreases worked every fourth row for a long, lightweight accessory you’ll love wearing during the warm weather months.
