Don't you dare save this just for date night. You would be doing yourself a disservice. This is a beautiful shawl that can be worn to dress up a pair of jeans or to accentuate a little black dress. It is not for warmth but for style and this is a stylish shawl/wrap.

Looks like the mystery of the missing picture has been solved as I can see the picture. Hope the others that commented they could not see it come back on because this is a very pretty shawl. The complete free pattern is posted here so there are no other links you will be sent to. This is made using Vannas Choice yarns. Vannas Choice is a great yarn and very good quality.

This is one of many patterns for which there is no picture. This is happening more and more often and is very frustrating! Please post pictures of items!

How beautiful! The Vanna's Choice Glamour yarn has this metallic thread woven through it. I am surprised at how easy the pattern is. It just repeats after you begin row three. It's what you would call one of those mindless tv watching projects. To me, it looks like you spent at least $50 at a fancy store!

I agree princess6860504 this pattern is exquisitely beautiful! I almost passed it by because it was marked intermediate and I'm just not there yet although some day I hope to be. I now have to choose between platinum, sapphire or jewel on my yarn...or maybe three shawls...one in each color! Thanks for the pattern!

What a gorgeous, light, elegant shawl. I think it is so beautiful that my fingers are madly itching to get started because I want to wear it NOW, lol! I have not seen Lion Brand yarns here in South Africa so I may have to order it online unless someone knows of a good equivalent. If anyone has any ideas I would really love to hear from you.

To save almost anything from the internet just right click then 'save as' and choose where to save it. I usually save in pictures. Hope this helps.

I really love these patterns however I wish there was a way to save them to our computers in either .doc or .pdf format (possibly with the "printfriendly" application like other crafting sites do)? I like saving projects to use later when I'm offline and I can't always afford extra ink to print them all off immediately - I save them to computer to use later on. Is this something you could consider doing? Many thanks for all the wonderful free patterns and sharing them with us all!
