City Sun Shawl is a half circle with pie shaped sections separated by eyelet increases. This is a 3 color shawl with a garter stitch fade, slipped stitches creating faux colorwork, and eyelet lace. This design is for beginners! I created this design for the Brooklyn Local Yarn Shops and Local Yarn shops everywhere! City Sun Summer forecast is sunny, bright, breezy and super easy.

The hardest part about this pattern is keeping track of your rows and which side you are on. It is extremely helpful to put a removable stitch marker on the right side of the fabric to remind you. Do not worry too much if your stitch count is off by a stitch or 2. Just increase in the section that needs it to catch up.

I have listed the yarns I used but ANY fingering weight yarn will be beautiful!
