Leading Men Fiber Arts dyed up some winter inspired yarns, and was kind enough to ask me to design with it. Keeping with the winter theme, I designed WINTER CITY. A top-down crescent shawl, I used a garter and star stitch pattern against a backdrop of stockinette stitch, finishing off with a mosaic border designed to emulate the appearance of snowflakes. Since the project uses DK weight yarn, it is sure to be a perfect accessory for winter in YOUR city!

PATTERN NOTES: Read the entire pattern before casting on to familiarize yourself with the project. While gauge is not crucial for the fit of this item, it is important for yardage. Differences in gauge can lead to a shortage of yarn. A chart has been provided for the mosaic section, as well as a written pattern.
