I designed this shawl to feature two colors of yarn and you only need one skein (100g) of each color! Simple garter ridges and little yarn over eyelets decorate the semi-circle shape of this beginner friendly shawl. Start at the top center and increase toward the picot border with beautiful I-cord edges framing the wingspan of the shawl. This pattern includes videos linked throughout the instructions to help you cast on and bind off. The size is perfect to decorate your shoulders with beautiful hand dyed colorways. I wrote this pattern with beginner knitters in mind, so if this is your first shawl project, you will learn lots of simple techniques that I use in my other shawl designs. Enjoy knitting this relaxing and breezy Westknits shawl!
