Use two contrasting skeins of 4ply yarn, allowing approx 400m per colour. This pattern works really well with a solid and a speckled skein. You could also make it using two skeins of one yarn only, and omit the stripes.

Colours shown are Cadbury (purple) and The Experimenter (speckled) on standard sock by Truly Hooked.

This large shawl has an angled top line so it sits perfectly around your shoulders, and features a pretty lace edging for that hint of something special. The shawl is easy to make, and can be adapted to any size.
