Sarasi was designed to make the most of a gradient mini skein set – the airy lace pattern is not only pretty, it allows every colour to shine and makes for a good sized shawl that is so lightweight.

Fold it small and toss it in your bag, throw it over your shoulders, wrap it round your neck. And be the bright spot in someone’s world, maybe your own…

Level
Advanced beginner

Skills
There is patterning on both right and wrong sides. If you haven’t tried “true” lace, this is the perfect pattern to give it a shot. The lace pattern is simple and easy to memorise.
