Rain or Shine Skinny Scarf
Choose five colors of lace weight mohair silk in a gradient of shades from light to dark to make this fluffy little shawl. Two colors are always held together for a blended marl effect. The pattern instructs to change one color at a time to gradually melt the colors into a smooth gradient. It’s like painting with watercolors! Increase shape the triangle toward the center of the shawl followed by decreases. Simple slip stitches float along the top of the fabric for a delicate raindrop effect. The relaxing stitches shine with radiating mohair yarns like West Wool Glowhair. Make this delightfully soft shawl for a friend or create a quick knit for yourself in between your other shawl and sweater projects.
