A crescent-shaped shawl, Autumn Mist pairs the shifting hues of gradient mini-skeins with a delicate wisp of mohair-silk. The gradient colors are all worked in garter stitch, creating broad bands of color in the beginning that narrow and elongate with each new shade. The mohair bands, reminiscent of the morning mists of the cool days of autumn, are worked in stockinette. This simple shawl is completed with a picot bind off in the final shade. Autumn Mist is both striking and diaphanous, cozy and delicate, just perfect for the changing seasons.
