Ancient Moss is an asymmetrical skinny triangle shawl with an allover mosaic slipped stitch colorwork pattern. The pattern is written for three colorways, but you can use as few as two or as many as you’d like.

Mosaic knitting is the perfect stepping stone to colorwork, and Ancient Moss uses an easy-to-remember stitch pattern that creates beautifully textured stitches.

Emma’s Yarn Drapey DK paired with a loose gauge makes for the perfect silhouette.

Size: 15 x 95” / 38 x 241.5cm.

Needles: US 8 / 5.0mm or size to obtain gauge; circular, at least 24” / 60cm.

Gauge: 21 sts and 42 rows = 4”/ 10cm in Mossy Garter Slip Stitch.

Gauge is not crucial but differences will affect yardage and finished dimensions.
