Designed specifically to work with mini skeins, the Ticket to Anywhere shawl is an exploration of stitch patterns that smoothly transition into each other for a cohesive design using 10 different shades of yarn. To create your own, select a combination of 6 coordinating mini skeins that can be faded together, and 4 minis that pop against them. (You could also use a single shade for the background and minis for the foreground pops of color, or vice versa!) Decide the order you want to use them in and off you go!
At nearly 1,000 yards Ticket to Anywhere is a BIG shawl project, but with changing colors and stitch patterns, you’ll never get bored!
