A modern twist on traditional lace knitting, Settler is a stylish, airy, crescent-shaped shawl using just one skein of fingering yarn.
Wrap Settler around your neck as a snugly scarf or gracefully drape it across your shoulders.
The garter stitch body makes for a relaxing knit, perfect for handbag knitting and chatting with friends.
The funky criss-crossed border is fun to knit and simple to master.
Ideal for the adventurous beginner.
The suggested yarn is a plump, single-spun fingering. If you are substituting another yarn, allow for at least the longer length recommended.
