“Sometimes words are not enough. Then serve the colors. And the shapes. And the notes. And the emotions.” (Alessandro Baricco)
Colowinter is a triangular shawl. That combines lovely graphic mosaic knitting in an eyecatching item. The mosaic motif is an easy to knit stitch pattern that uses slip stitches and only one colour for row but creates a fascinating result.
Use your creativity,imagination to pair your favorite colors.
I used cold colors, purple, light blue and green to reflect the winter soul.

TENSION
Gauge is not important as long as you like the fabric that you’ve created after blocking your swatch.
I used: row 5 mm (US 8) to get 17 sts x 24 rows = ~ 10 cm/4 inch in garter stitch after blocking
SIZE
184 cm / 72 inch wingspan along top edge and 60 cm / 23 inch width
