Step To It Shawl

My slight obsession with stepped edges gave birth to this stunning shawl. It combines all of my favorite things - striping, lace, and, of course, stepped edges. Knit from the bottom up, this shawl uses 2 contrasting colors of your favorite fingering weight yarn. It showcases both yarns with alternating striped and lace sections. A stand out piece you can dress down with a pair of jeans or throw over a dress on chilly evenings.
