Prep School Shawl
Oversized triangular shawl knit to show off those school colors. With a nod to plaid and pleats, wrap yourself up for those evenings in the stands!!
The colorwork is achieved using mosaic knitting technique… that means you only carry one color at a time slipping stitches as you go!!
The pattern begins with casting on only five stitches. Increases are made on the edges and down the center spine throughout the pattern.
Gauge is not super important in the pattern. Once you get started, check and see if you like the fabric being created. The shawl is meant to be loose and drapey.
Size
76 in/193 cm wingspan and 28 in/71 cm at deepest point.
