I loved both versions so much that this pattern includes instructions ...

The Alayna shawl was designed for a friend who wanted an elegant and warm shawl for her bridesmaids. Pair it with a white shirt and jeans for a night out, over a dress, or wear it just to keep the chill away at home or office. You can style it in many ways.

It’s Only Natural Poncho is a stylish garment that’s quick to knit and feels like a big warm hug on crisp cold days.
