PATTERN NOTES
The shawl is worked on a looser gauge than recommended for the yarn, to create a soft and drapey fabric.

Shawl is worked in 2 identical pieces from rib edge to the center and then grafted together.

There are 6 edge stitches on each side, with remaining stitches worked in textured pattern.

Slip all stitches purlwise with working yarn held in front unless otherwise specified.

Slip all markers when you come to them.

There are 2 different options for seaming the two sides together.
