Turn It To The Max Shawl

$7.50

A single-skein shawl showcasing fabulous pools of colour.

This dramatic crescent-shaped shawl uses a single skein of fingering weight yarn. Simple yarnovers highlight the featured colour in pools of dropped stitches giving a maximum show-stopping effect. This is a project which takes full advantage of no two skeins being exactly alike, allowing you to create a truly unique shawl.
