Knit this cute, reversible shawl with cats covering each side!
Any cat owner knows that cats have minds of their own. The Herding Cats Shawl shows what happens if you try to herd cats… they just do their own thing. Cute cats cover both sides of this gorgeous reversible shawl.
Double knit, the shawl is fully reversible, featuring opposite color schemes on each side. Full instructions are included for the double knitting technique. The color work is chart only, not written.
The shawl is worked from the bottom corner up to the top edge. The finished side of the shawl is approximately 56” (142 cm) in width from side to side and 22” (56 cm) in height from bottom corner to top edge.
