This lovely open work edged shawl is made from #1 Sock Fingering, 50% Marino Superwash Wool, 25% Alpaca & 25% Nylon. The yarn graduates to multi colors throughout the shawl. Great for a night on the town or any occasion in Spring or Fall. It can be machine washed, but probably better to hand wash and lay on a towel to dry. From a smoke-free home.
