PATTERN DETAILS
Sample shown uses a different yarn. We have paired Merino Baby from Pascuali as it is a beautiful match of fiber and weight to replicate the original design. Merino Baby comes in 50g balls, so two are required to meet the yardage requirements.
CONSTRUCTION
This simple crescent shaped shawl can be made with just 1 skein of fingering (sock weight) yarn. It alternates bands of slipped sts, garter stitch and short rows.
The crescent is asymmetrical (it’s longer towards one side) and its characteristic shape is achieved by working increases over the edges.
