Hi, here I am back after a long break with a free pattern for you. I got back from my vacation three weeks ago but was busy finishing the cardigan pattern that was incomplete and needed some finishing touches. Once I completed the cardigan I started this shawl.
Before going to the pattern I'll let you have a sneak peek of my latest pattern, the twisted cable cardigan that will be available soon.
Coming back to the shawl, it took me about 2 days to design and make this shawl. I picked up bright colors for the shawl because I needed some color therapy after working with grey predominantly.
You can purchase the PDF version of the pattern from here for a small amount. The PDF contains a chart as well as instruction to customize the shawl size.
