INSPIRATION

When I saw the classic combo of two contrasting colors from Artyarns, I knew that they had to become something special and classic. Graphic mosaic is always my jam so this shawl was born!

It’s a sideways-knit, shallow triangular shawl that can be also worn as a scarf, worked entirely in easy intuitive mosaic, gradually increasing to reach the desired width, then decreasing. Modification instructions for smaller/larger shawl are included.

The first 40 rows of the shawl are fully written and charted to get you going and the rest of the shawl is charted only.
