Sign of the Sun is soft and romantic — but the design is modernized with the addition of a bright color and crisp textures. The shawl is worked from the top down as a hybrid between a semi-circle and a crescent. Interspersed with sections of stockinette and lace in the main color are sets of elongated stitches worked in a contrasting color.
