Select five colors and melt them together with the fading marl technique. This little sideways shawl is beginner friendly and super quick to knit. The pattern is written for five colorways of West Wool Glowhair, but you can use as many colors as you like! The size is easy to customize by knitting more repeats for a larger kerchief or start decreasing earlier for an extra small size.
