Ribbing Please
Gather a colorful palette of DK & Worsted weight yarns to knit this cozy ribbed shawl. The sample features a constant dark main color using the squishy soft Woolfolk Tov yarn. Stripe your contrast colors however you like to use single skeins and leftover amounts of DK & worsted weight wools. The fabric is knit top-down so you can continue the ribbed pattern repeat until the shawl reaches your desired size.
Size
One Size. Top-down construction makes it easy to customize. Stop at anytime or continue increasing for the shlanket of your dreams.
