Notes

Because I knit on the loose side, I went down a needle size throughout. I also knitted only four repeats of Chart 2 as my yarn was some heavier than the specified yarns and I prefer a smaller shawl. Even with these changes, the shawl is still a generous size and Iā€™m considering making an even smaller one in the future.

This was one of those patterns I found hard to put down and thoroughly enjoyed knitting it. Many thanks, Bev, for trusting me to test knit it!
