There are times when a crochet stitch presents itself as the perfect basis for a knitted piece. This crescent shawl is one of those times. Knit stitches picked up along the side of this trefoil edging turned out to be a fun way to join two crafts with two yarns in this design for Louet and Colinton.

This pattern is just one of the new patterns in the Louet North America Colinton 2015 Collection. See the rest of the patterns here.
