This stunning and eye catching reversible shawl is guaranteed to produce quite an effect and a lot of interest around you..!
Knitted using the wonderful Brioche Knitting technique, the fabric is light and bouncy, and the Brioche Lace element turns the lines of beautiful hand dyed yarns into a striking pattern, and the shawl is wonderfully warm and soft, as it drapes around the shoulders for a cosy feel.
Knitted in two colours from the top down, the shawl comes in two sizes, and is the perfect project for knitters who are already experienced in basic Two- Colours Brioche Knitting.
