This simple shawl is inspired by my favourite Chocolate Mousse dessert and is a sweet treat to knit as the pattern is easy to memorize. The ripples created by the dropped stitches are airy, like a perfect chocolate mousse dessert, and it works up as fast as a dessert vanishes. This small shawl is sweet to wear as it is designed to use one (or two) skeins of your favourite worsted yarn and will keep you warm without extra bulk; dressing up any outfit! An added bonus is this shawl is just as pretty on the back as on the front side!
