Simple DK weight shawl, tough enough to wear with blue jeans, but with a lace border for a touch of femininity. The body colour fades out, just like your favourite blue jeans.

Perfect pattern for gradient yarn, in a DK weight.
Blue (body) yarn: 630 yards
Gold (lace) yarn: 200 yards

Shawl is easily expandable by adding 12-stitch repeats evenly on each side, but will require additional yarn.
