Rosehip is a delightfully soft, drapy slightly asymmetrical triangular shawl of a generous size and is easy to style and wear.
Slipped stitches are the main feature giving the Rosehip Shawl its simple and very pretty textured colourwork impressions. In addition a simple textured pattern of small purl bumps gives the solid coloured stockinette sections interest and movement.

The Rosehip shawl is charted throughout, and with only carrying one strand of yarn at a time, this shawl is a suitable project for a beginner knitter wanting to venture into colour work.
The shawl will keep all knitters entertained, and the project will be a valuable addition to your wardrobe.
