Notes

This was a lot of fun. It is probably best done in a wool blend, but my mom wanted a light lacy summer shawl for when she gets cold at the movies.

Used the directions for the wrap, made it 3 repeats wide. I did not have enough yarn to make it as long as was recommended, but my mom is perfectly fine with that. It grew about 30% after blocking!
