Coriandoli, the Italian word for "confetti", is a delightful little shawl that highlights the distinct shape of the now-so-familiar paper confetti!
Coriandoli's simple shape with rounded edges is complemented by large colorwork circles, worked by picking up and dropping strands of a lace weight yarn. It's worked in garter stitch, flat, and has an I-Cord edge for a polished finish.
