This shawl offers a lot of our favorite things in one knitted accessory--three colors to play in slip-stitch stripes, a touch of Old Shale lace, and a soft tweedy yarn. We couldn’t resist a nod to the “whole kit and caboodle” and we hope this piece has a lot of your favorite design elements too! And--bonus--the bias asymmetrical triangle shape has a long tail for wrapping and styling this deliciously drapey fabric!
