Summer Shimmer Sarong/Shawl

5mm (H) hook. 
Wool needle
If you have any problems please email me at: susand1408@gmail.com or find me at http://www.crochetaddictuk.com

Galassia comes in a number of different colours. 
This shawl/Sarong was made using 60 emerald green

 There are beautiful sequins in the yarn that catch the light as it moves. 
It's like little stars 
It's made with 69% cotton 30% acrylic 1% polyester. This means that there isn't an excessive stretch to the yarn and it's light weight and brilliant for summer.
It's perfect for using with summer garments.
It's easy to work with and we a beautiful array of colours you are able to match your garment to the rest of your outfit.
I really enjoyed using this yarn and would recommend it.

This Sarong/Shawl is made so you can wear it over the day around the pool and then dress up an outfit in the evening with it.
