Pattern - Shawl - Thick & Thin Shawl in Hand Maiden's Eden & Angel Hair - 2511
MATERIALS: 1skein Hand Maiden’s EDEN - approx. 4 oz (118g)/218 yards (200m), & 1 skein Hand Maiden’s Angel Hair - approx. 1.7 oz (50g)/437 yards (400m)

I used approx. 210 yards (194m) for my version.
US Size 8 (5mm) Circular Knitting Needle 24” (60cm) or 32” (80cm) or single pointed needles. Crochet hook for fringe.
Plus US Size 9 (5.5mm) Knitting Needle for an even “loosely” Bind Off.
Note: Entire shawl is worked in Garter Stitch from bottom up. You could also use Worsted Weight yarn and Fingering Weight yarn, or brushed Kid Mohair. Key is some type of contrast.
I wanted this one to be light & airy.

Before wash: 18 sts = 4” (both yarns) & 34 rows = 4” (both yarns).
After wash: 16 1/2 sts = 4” (both yarns) & 32 rows = 4” (both yarns).

After wash: Center Back 21” (53cm). Top Length 66” (168cm).
NOTE: I placed my washed shawl on a towel to dry. I didn’t block it. Could be larger if blocked.
