Let me introduce you to the magnificent Jenolan Shawl

Starting in one corner the Jenolan Shawl grows steadily sideways across various textures, delightful colours and graphic colour changes. Generously spread Daisy stitches take centre stage in the otherwise simple mix of knit and purl stitches for a defining texture of the shawl.

You need 3 skeins of drapey fingering yarn for the Jenolan Shawl, so go bold with contrasting colours or classic with restrained muted tonal hues and get a light, flowing, generously sized shawl that is easy to style and a delight to wear.
