DETAILS
I played around with the shape and style of this scarf for almost a whole year! I am so happy with where it landed, and I hope you love it, too. Knit sideways with lots of texture and a splash of color, it is effortless to wear as the perfect final layer before heading out! This scarf is knit sideways, increasing up to the widest part of the triangle and then decreasing back down.

SUGGESTED YARN
For this shawl I chose a bouncy, woolen-spun yarn for the main fabric and one of the contrast yarns for a very wearable, light-weight scarf. For the other contrast yarn I spiced things up with a color-shifting, sproingy, worsted-spun yarn that adds a delightful pop of color with very low effort!
