This is a beautiful crochet project that works up fast and I used just under 1 skein of Blue Heron’s Silk Linen. I was ready for a second skein but then realized the lower point of the shawl was already below my bee-hind and the upper points winged to my hands. I love a beautiful yarn on the hook but 2 skeins would’ve been overkill, even for me. :)

Festival is written well but I would have loved charts - they make it easier to find the rhythm of the rows. For a free pattern, I can’t complain though! Kudos to the designer for sharing. :D

Blue Heron’s Silk Linen has a nice texture and typically lovely colors. Because it’s all plant fibers, it has great drape but will stretch over time so plan accordingly.this was another reason I didn’t need to break out another skein :)
