Break yarn at each color change. Work sts over old color to hide ends as you go to avoid a lot of ends to weave in at the end.
Ch 1 at beg of row does not count as a st.
Increase 1 st every row.
The techniques used are very simple and approachable, which make this shawl perfect for adventurous beginners.
The Zig Zag Mosaic pattern is charted out.
