Forget gauge! Forget structure! Goodbye complex charts! The magic of this shawl pattern is crafted by allowing the yarn to do all the work.

This pattern contains a guide on how you could work scrap yarns into a shawl with a near seamless fade from one colour to another.


The two sizes available create vastly different sized shawls.

Using 8 or 9mm holding DK or light worsted double.
