Thneed
“A Thneed is a highly versatile object knitted from the foliage of a Truffula Tree. According to the Once-ler, it is “A-fine-something-that-all-people need.”“ (https://seuss.fandom.com/wiki/Thneed)
This striped and textured symmetrical triangle shawl gives off heavy Dr. Seuss vibes -- at least in the green color pairing used in its creation.
Choose a different color palette for a completely different feel.
Yarn Used:
Two skeins of AJHC Wools SW DK (231yds/100g)
* Shown in color “Udea”
One skein of AJHC Wools Boucle DK (246yds/100g)
* Shown in color “Teal Green”
You may opt not to use a textured yarn like the Boucle DK. If so, choose another skein of DK yarn in a contrasting color to your main choice. A few yards difference in yardage won’t drastically affect the outcome of the shawl.
This shawl is knit top-down beginning with a garter tab and increasing consistently at both edges and on either side of the center spine stitch.
This entire shawl is knit following two separate, yet very simple, stripe instructions.

* Knit
* Purl
* Yarn Over

* 40” long circular needle in the size needed to obtain gauge
