This shawl lets the yarn do all the work for a bright, cheerful color play,
accented by drop-stitch rows and short rows to turn the center curve.

The shorter depth makes this easy to wear as a shawl, shoulder warmer, scarf or cowl.

Very light and comfortable using a single skein of sock yarn. Use your favorite color combination and you’ll want to knit one more row
