Gambling with Color is our super fun and gorgeous new shawl pattern that you’ll make over and over again! We’ve put together these harmonious kits in fingering and worsted! Gambling with Color uses dice (or a random number generator) so that you can create a new, unique shawl every time you make it. It is also great for using up leftovers - you can pop them into these kits as a supplement or build your own from our fantastic yarns!

Gambling with Color can be made to be any size - the fingering version requires a Size 5 needle and the worsted requires a Size 9 - but use any needle that give you the fabric that you like. No need to worry about gauge, counts, or anything else with this awesome choose your own adventure shawl!
