Inspired by a shawl her grandma knitted to wear out dancing in the 50s, Amy has designed the Birl Shawl as a shawl to bring joy, movement and energy to your needles and to your life. Knitted top down with alternating bands of stockinette and eyelet rows, the shawl ends in a fringe as dramatic or as understated as you desire. Options for both have been included. Using 2 skeins of Ginger Twist Studio Sweet Flax, which provides such beautiful drape and movement to the finished piece, this shawl is perfect for adorning shoulders as summer evenings begin to cool. And yes, also perfect for dancing.
