Painted Wings is an exaggerated crescent shawl worked from the top center growing outwards. After casting on, every single row is the same until the bind off, making for a mindless knit. Painted Wings requires two skeins of yarn: one fingering weight and one mohair. This is the perfect project to show off a single skein of variegated sock yarn. The variegation will create a watercolor effect in the garter rows and little pops of color in the picot bind off. The rapid increases ensure that there will be little to no pooling.
