About this pattern:
Pattern to be released Friday, October 11*
This pattern is made by holding two strands of fingering weight together to get a DK weight shawl. There are sections where you will hold two of the same color together, as well as holding one strand of two different colors together to create a marled look. You are welcome to substitute a DK weight yarn for the two strands of fingering weight yarn held double. If you do this, you won’t have a marled section, just three different sections of color.
There are two different sizes available for this shawl. Size A is a medium sized shawl that most people will find very wearable and comfortable. Size B is the size used for the sample in the picture on page one. This size is much larger and may not be to everyone’s liking. You can also alter the sizing by stopping after any of the sections and moving onto the bind off.
I have also included two different types of bind off: A crochet bind-off and a stretchy bind-off. You can choose whichever bind-off suits your style.

Pattern sizes:
There are two sizes in this pattern: Size A (B). Size A is a smaller version of size B and it is just a matter of preference as to which one you make. Dimensions of each one are on the schematic page.
