This top down shawl uses two strands of a 4ply yarn to create texture. Reverse stocking stitch, is matched with stocking stitch where stitches are knitted into the back, to give them a raised appearance. Lace eyelets define sections.

Also, a french language version thanks to my friend “PetitBoutdemoi”.
