Vesavi Shawl
Vesavi means summer in the Telugu language. This light and airy shawl is perfect for the cooler summer nights!
This quick knit, crescent shawl is knitted side-to-side. Stripes worked while carrying your yarn, so that the only ends to weave in, are at cast on and bind off.
A small section of mosaic knitting, created with slipped stitches. You only have one color to work with on each row.
I have included instructions to make the small(shown in pink and gray) and Medium(shown in blue and white). Once finished add some fringe, and done!
