Spice it Up

Life is better with a bit of flavor, and this is the perfect way to Spice it Up! Uniquely constructed into a V-shape, this shawl features the style of a triangular shawl without all the extra fabric (or the extra work)! Worked on the bias, the two sides of the shawl knit up quickly to mirror one another, highlighting the decadent color of Lavender Lune mini-skeins. The two sides are easily joined, coming together in a final triangle of color. Optional tassels complete the look, creating the perfect accessory to spice up any outfit!
