Brushability

Brushability is all about the yarn and allowing it to shine! Brushed cashmere has been everywhere in ready-to-wear pieces, so why not join in the fun? Knit in Moondrake Fuwa Fuwa, Brushability is a dream to knit! It’s so soft, so cuddly, and absolutely luxurious! The shawl’s optional brushed finishing elevates it to the next level, enhancing its softness and texture. Strategic shaping creates this shawl’s unique triangle silhouette, making it an ideal transitional shawl, effortlessly draping for warmth and style. **CONSTRUCTION** Shawl is CO and worked sideways from end to end (or from tip to tip). **FINISHED MEASUREMENTS** Shawl Wingspan: 61"/152.5cm Shawl depth down center: 30"/75cm **YARN REQUIREMENTS** *Please note these are yarn estimates.
