Pride Goeth Before the Shawl
The second pattern in my Pride series, this shawl employs a series of brightly-colored mini skeins into a generously-sized rectangular rainbow of a shawl.
I designed the color transitions with star-like motifs that keep you entertained as you knit, allow the colors to really shine against each other, and celebrate the sparkle of Pride month!
The pattern also includes instructions for using four full-size (100g) skeins, or smaller minis of 20g.
Each purchase of Pride Goeth Before the Shawl in the month of June with benefit the Human Rights Campgain, The Trevor Project, and Knit the Rainbow — three organizations working hard to benefit the LGBTQIA+ community.
