The Croissant Shawl is that most useful of wraps, a cross between a shawl and a scarf. Short rows provide a sweeping look similar to bias knitting, but gently curved. Cast-on/bind-off picots add tiny, jewel-toned details.

Gauge is not important for this pattern, and any weight of yarn can be used. Very little color A is used, making it optimal for a skein or two of sumptuous hand-dyed yarn plus some coordinating stash yarn.
