Color Adventure Shawl Two

The Color Adventure Shawl Two is an asymmetrical triangle shawl that works best with a color-changing yarn that has long color changes like the sample yarn, Gauge Dye Works self-striping shawl yarn. Instead of working specific row amounts, whenever the color changes, you change stitch patterns.

All of the stitch patterns are simple enough for beginners – but interesting enough to keep knitters of all levels engaged.

The final section introduces some rows of eyelets, more simple texture, and finishes with a few rows of garter stitch and a picot bind off.

NOTE: This is a great stash-buster project as well. You’ll need approximately 70 grams of fingering-weight yarn in various colors for the striped section and a 100-gram skein of fingering-weight yarn for the larger, final section.
