Agate is also part of a collection of 4 shawls available in an eBook.

This capelet is made out of two different colour-ways of sock yarn. Any sock yarn with long colour repeats will have the same effect. Of course, you can also use two plain colours. It is named after the stone agate. A geologist pointed out to me that it looked like an agate, so Agate it had to be.
