The Yoriko Shawl is a simple, versatile, reversible one skein crescent shawlette. It features stacked double yarn over lace, and can be worn as a shawl or kerchief. The shawl is named for Yoriko, the amazing dyer of The Fibre Art Studio. Yoriko is an intelligent, saavy woman whom I admire very much. She has much strength, fortitude and incredible dyeing talent.
