With a southwestern feeling, and looking a bit like a doily, this gorgeous shawl is the perfect accessory for cool summer nights or wrapping around yourself at the pool. The open pattern and breathable cotton used makes this a great summer fashion statement. Great to add a pop of color to a summer outfit without adding too much heat! Gauge isn't super important for this pattern, but the directions are written for a weight 4, medium, worsted weight yarn. I used 6 skeins Lily Sugar'n Cream. Substitue yarns to use are Bernat Handicrafter Cotton, Peaches an Crème, or Lion Brand Re-Up
