This intermediate shawl is collaboration between Caryn Moir and Jennifer Miller (the artistic genius behind Theodora’s Pearls!). It’s a good project for knitters who want to build on their sock yarn shawl skills. You’ll begin with a tab start, then work through a striping section and finish with a lace edge. The stockinette/garter fields show off pretty hand dyed yarn well and the end result will look like you worked much harder than you did. (The striping section is a great way to use partial balls of yarn - it’s a total stash buster!)

Beginners with tab start experience will learn color changes and relatively simple lace.

Intermediate knitters will work with familiar techniques to create unique and colorful shawls.
