Beautiful shawl, sadly ..
.. not charted. Beauty = 5 stars, no chart = 3 stars 5+3=8 divided by 2 = 4. I know, not fair to the designer but a rating should also reflect the customer's experience. JBW made me whole, thank you very much. If my rating helps to distinguish future pattern purchases it will have done its job!

Eventually you will know how merino light will behave, I use it for my color selection. JBW is one of the few yarn shops that offer such a huge Tosh inventory, sadly, I no longer live in Reno so collecting the Samples is a great way to get a feel for the colors. REMEMBER that they do vary between the many Tosh yarns, your Vintage will most likely not be the same shade as this sample.

Soft, wonderful colors, but ...
... I was tempted to give only 4 stars because the yarn is very soft however, a caution should do! I use the merino only for those projects that will be used/worn kindly. No stress nor abrasion. Pills, and most merino will pill, can be erased but you want to be gentle with that as well.

No charts - not good.
Hence only 3 stars. I will not even bother 'interpreting' the written instructions, life is too short for that. Pattern will go straight to charity, someone else may be tickled pink to get it.
Please note whether a pattern is charted or not. Thank you.
