This is the sister pattern to Scoria Fingering. If you purchase both patterns (or bought one of them previously), you will get 50% off the second. Happy knitting!

Scoria is an enjoyable and soothing shawl in two sizes and yarn weights: a smaller, multi-color DK weight version, and a larger, 2-color fingering weight version. Garter and beginner-friendly lace, Scoria is a relaxing knit, with an interesting construction. Both sizes are easily customized: larger or smaller, 2 colors or as many colors as you have stripes! The possibilities are endless!
