Knit a sweet little shawl with a fun intarsia serrated edge. The pattern includes options for both fingering and DK weight yarn and is simple to customise to the yardage you have on hand. Choose a skein of gradient yarn with a strong contrast or colour block with two solid yarn colours. Instructions include a five mini-skein fingering weight version where each colour is worked twice for a mirrored project. You may also knit each colour once, working two sections for each colour, or use ten colours, perfect for a 10 g mini-skein set.
The pattern is easily adjusted to your preferred size or to make the most of your yardage.

This is a perfect first intarsia project, with only 1 colour change per row and the accompanying instructional video providing tips for this technique.

Pattern includes both charted and written instructions and an accompanying tutorial video.
