Notes

This is the very first Gaia and an experiment in doing something un-characteristic (for me, that is) I have to thank Zoe the 2nd chance Pup-Ness Monster for being a patient, tolerant + beautiful & elegant model… (I’m talking about my beloved dog, in the 4th photo, obviously!)
Knit from the neck down & completely reversible, an easy knit for a beginner but with enough happening to not be a snooze to an experienced knitter. Size shown uses only 1 ball but can easily be made larger if desired (and you have more yarn!) the pattern does interesting things with the colours and every shawl will come out different, a quick 1-of-a-kind, 1-ball knit, good for gift giving completed or as a kit. (I concieved, designed & knit this while recovering from a shoulder injury- yes, I needed a gentle hug… I launched this as a free gift to ravelry on April 11, Bobmas Day- I figured all good mojo helps with healing!)
