Dont believe me? Just SWATCH

This textured, 3 color, crescent shaped shawl is worked from the top-down with a modified garter tab cast on that eases that “point” that many crescent shawls develop, and gives you a beautiful eyelet edge. Garter stitch sections make for mindless knitting while garter stripes (worked with short rows) and a lace section keep things colorful and fun.

It’s a great way to add some color to your winter wardrobe, and you can use up a few skeins of sport or fingering weight, plus some partial skeins of the CCs.
Materials:
580 yards of the MC, 115 yards of CC1, and 330 yards of CC2.

Note that you can easily work this up in fingeringweight yarn to a tighter gauge--you will just end up with a smaller shawl.

Note also that Wollmeise Blend skeins are typically oversized (weighing more than 150 grams). The sample shown used 156 grams of a 160 gram skein of the MC (in Nautilus). Be aware that if your gauge varies from the pattern, you may require an add’l skein of the MC.
