Gradient Lights is a top down triangular shaped shawl. While knitting sections of texture and lace you will gently fade from one color to the next resulting in a stunning transition from light to dark.

I designed this shawl specifically for Emma’s Yarn’s LYS DAY limited edition kits (cover photo). Which can be purchased at participating Local Yarn Shops. You can find a shop close to you (and online) listed here or from me here

The pattern is included for Free in the limited edition kit
