Fall in love with the simple and clean lines of Waiting for Spring. This asymmetric shawl is worked in two colours in delicate yet decidedly modern stitch patterns.
You begin the shawl with relaxing garter stitch that’s punctuated by thin fishnet stripes. Then you switch to your second colour and work a wide, airy fishnet lace border with garter stitch stripes.
Have fun choosing your colour combo or make a chic monochromatic version by using a single colour throughout the shawl.
You can also get Waiting for Spring in the 2019 Shawl Club collection.
