Portia Shawl
This pattern is available as a
free Ravelry download
“The quality of mercy is not strain’d,
It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven
Upon the place beneath: it is twice blest;
It blesseth him that gives and him that takes”
-Portia, The Merchant of Venice
Portia is worked top down to create a shawl that is three-quarters of a square in shape. This allows the shawl to drape easily over the shoulders and stay put.
The pattern is fully charted.
Finished Dimensions:
42 inches across, 21 inches from neck to bottom edge
