Mother's Day Shawl
Lion Brand® Nature's Choice Organic® Cotton
GAUGE: 9 sts = 4 in. (10 cm) in pattern. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
NOTES: 1. Shawl is worked in two halves. This construction technique creates scallops on both ends.
2. Both halves are worked in the same way. Row 1 of the Second Half is worked across the opposite side of the foundation ch of the First Half.

| Mother's Day Shawl Reviewed by Patrice Bill on 2011-06-22 |

| What a beautiful shawl! I used a soft worsted weight yarn I already had and a J hook and made it a little wider so the shawl has 5 scallops. I did follow the pattern and made the shawl in two halves. I will definitely be making more of these!
