I love crochet lace especially with lightweight yarns. So pretty!
I have a collection of different colors of size 5 cotton and every once in awhile, I like to grab a cone of cotton and see where my hook takes me. It wasn’t intentional, but can you see the owls?

Visitor Project
Thank you to Chelin Fusco for allowing me the use of her photos of this project. She made it twice and her projects are extraordinary!
Gauge
Due to the nature of this project, gauge will vary dependent on your chosen yarn and hook size. Approximate gauge after blocking is: 27 hdc, in back loops only, for 12 rows = 4″
Notes
The base of this shawl is worked vertically to form a sort of curved rectangle, then stitches are placed across the long edge to form the lace edging.
This is the third in my new Fling collection. The first is the Butterfly Fling and the second is the Tandem Fling. Click either image to see them as well.

Finishing
Blocking is recommended for all natural fibers. For this wrap, I wet the project in lukewarm water completely and squeezed out some of the water gently. I rolled it in a dry towel to remove as much excess water as possible. I placed the project on another dry towel and shaped it then allowed to dry.
With yarn needle, weave in loose ends carefully.
