Never Black Shawl

Sale price$5.99

The idea for this shawl came from the yarn used, which is all shades of dark except black and reminded me of a line in the Owl that was Afraid of the Dark. The shawl starts from a central motif and is worked from this center out in each direction. The idea is of a central star exploding outwards like a supernova to give a beautiful symmetrical lace scarf.
