Love and Marriage Shawl Knitting Pattern

“Love and marriage, love and marriage, go together like a horse and carriage...” This top-down shawl brings together some of my favorite things.

Squishy wool in Garter Stitch and a traditional Shetland Lace Stitch are married with doily-type increases and leaves in this top-down 3⁄4 circle shawl that sits perfectly on my shoulders without the need for a shawl pin.
