Masala is a mixture of ground spices used in Indian cooking with great aroma and color. For me, it is a wonderfully creative process, full of emotion and energy by those who prepare it. No mixture equals the other. This MKAL is based on the idea to enjoy every moment of the process. You will make a unique experience and discover the mystery step by step while mixing the three colors for this new shawl. I’m sure you’ll enjoy Masala.

It is a triangular shawl. It is available in one size. It is constructed from the top down and has written instructions and a charted mosaic zone. It has been tested.
The mosaic zone with slipped stitches is fun to knit!
I recommend three colors of semi-solid yarn. If you love gradient yarn, I recommend using only one skein of smooth gradient yarn. Self-striping or wildly variegated yarns with vast tonal differences are not recommended.
