Argentina
Named for the Land of Silver, this shawl works up in the shape of a large crescent, allowing the ends to fall in graceful spirals. It is particularly elegant worked in worsted weight silk from Himalya Yarns, but many different yarns/ weights can be successfully substituted. The shawl is worked from the center back out, so you can also make it to the size you want.
Some comments from the kind people who tested the pattern for me:
“Incredibly simple pattern that produces gorgeous results.”
“Totally worth it imho, easy, lovely, lightweight.”
