Stripes and short rows, one of our most favorite combination of all times, are the key techniques of this shawl by Veera Valimaki .
With their simplicity they can build stylish designs that can be worn so easily.
This long crescent shawl is spiced up with a little ribbing for texture interest.
In our sample we decided to mix both A Chic Blend and Aestiva to play with color and texture at the same time...Play with your favorite colors and enjoy every stitch!
