I have seen the pattern for a ladies shawl using Red Heart "Shimmer" yarn. I can't find what that yarn is; content and how much is in one skein. Can you help me locate it, please?

I've started this pattern over and over and cannot get it started right. It's a birthday present for my aunt's 90th year. Can anyone help? Desperate
