Pie Are Square Shawl Pattern
by Elizabeth Zimmermann
Directions for this project in Knitting Around, shown below. This shawl's weight and size are perfect for cool summer evenings and long vacations. The alpaca/silk blend makes it warm and the light weight of lace makes it compact when folded. Knit in the dramatic hand-dyed colors of Shimmer, the simple garter stitch becomes mesmerizing.
