Enjoy my brand new summer shawl called “Totally cool” I’d love it if you added the pattern to your faves and wish you happy knitting.

I knitted mine from a knit kit by Yarnz2go.. It’s totally worth it as it comes with the Lightly perfectly arranged and the mini skein as well as the printed and also emailed pattern in a project bag !!

Another note here, during my Summer KAL all my patterns are 30% off, including my 64 already discounted e-books, no coupon is needed, just add to cart and see the savings.

The shawl gets knitted top down and it continuous to grow until the very start of the bottom lace border, which is done with a very cool double yarn over lace design. It is knitted with a single skein of our special Lightly in an all new color way called “Aquatic” and the knit kits also include a mini skein of DK weight to finish up that lace border as shown.

The pattern is fully written and also offers a lace chart.
The blocked size measures 57” in overall length and 15.5” in middle height.
