Alla Prima Shawl

This generously sized triangular wrap is worked in one piece from just a few cast on stitches, and increases are worked along one edge to create a modern asymmetric triangle. Reminiscent of colours moving across a painter’s brush, the lace pattern is very simple, using only basic stitches, which makes it perfect for the beginner lace-knitter and an easy and quick-to-knit project. 

Included in your kit is the following:
(1) PDF pattern sent via email to Ravelry library
(2) 3 skeins Serenity 20 or Superfine Fingering or Superfine Glitter
