Thrive is made using holey increases and short shenanigans to create a gorgeous crescent shape that wraps beautifully around your shoulders. It also has a funky texture section that accentuates the curves of the short rows as the shawl descends into the stunning geometric border.

Thrive is sure to be a stunning statement shawl and knits up quickly with a squishy DK from one of my favorite dyers ever: The Neighborhood Fiber Company! Grab three colors, throw a winding party, and get that amazing squish factor on your needles!
