MOISSAC
Moissac is a French town known for its monastery with the most gorgeous romanesque doors, valves and cloisters. The shapes in this shawl are meant to mimic the shape of these rounded valves.

The shawl is knit bottom up and increases quickly. Thanks to this, you can decide for yourself when you are satisfied with the size of the shawl. In a nice fingering weight yarn, it creates a beautiful drapey material that wraps really nicely around the neck.

SIZE
The sample shawl is approximately 33 cm high x 170 cm between the wingtips.

YARN
The sample shawl uses ­FruValborg Merino Swirl, a discontinued fingering merino + nylon yarn, 400 m/100g. Approx 300 m each used of green and grey.

Pick that favourite fingering yarn that makes you swoon when you see it, those single skeins that you had to buy but never knew what to do with!
