Mustard is a top-down, half octagonal shawl that allows it to both drape easily over shoulders and wrap-around coverage without causing too much bulk around the neck. It is perfect as an outer lawyer for a forest walk or beach fire or snuggle up with it while reading a book and drinking your favourite tea.

  • Gauge is not essential and there is some room to play with yarn weight but playing with gauge will affect yardage and size of the garment.
  • Gauge and tension will affect the yardage of the yarn. Due to variations in personal knitting, and to avoid a game of yarn chicken, I recommend gathering more than enough yarn to complete the project in case you end up needing slightly more. I typically make sure I have 10% more yarn than the pattern calls for to make up for waste yarn or needing more due to my personal gauge and tension.
