Forgive My Lunacy is a stunning top-down triangle shawl featuring six beautiful mosaic stitch patterns over six contrast colors.

Bricks, broken glass, plaid, herringbone, and more bricks are created using slipped stitches with a mix of stockinette and garter stitch.

I used two full skeins of a main color along with a 6-color gradient set from Miss Babs.
