Pluck down puffy clouds and snuggle in: this super bulky shawl will make you feel like you’re floating on air. It knits up quickly, with a Stockinette body shaped with short rows and graced with a wide lace border. Use one color, or knit the border in a contrasting gradient for a gorgeous look — Spincycle Yarns’ amazing multi-colored Knit Fast, Die Young is a fantastic choice!
