A colorful shawl is a perfect accessory to brighten up cold winter days. Our Colorburst yarn self-shades into beautiful tones as you work, making the ‘color work’ as simple as can be! Turkish Delight uses two colors of Colorburst worked in a mosaic motif inspired by the tasty confection. The result is a show-stopping accessory you’ll want to wear all season.

PATTERN NOTES
This shawl is knit flat beginning at the tip and increasing to the widest edge. It is knit on the bias, and one stitch is increased every right side row. This shawl incoporates both garter stitch stripes and mosaic knitting. Only one color is used per row. Do not break yarn at color changes. Instead, twist the strands of yarn around one another on ever right side row, taking care not to twist too tightly. This pattern is both written and charted for your convenience. In this pattern, work all slipped stitches purlwise with yarn held to wrong side of work.
