The Candy Shawl is made side to side, and features sections of garter stitch and mesh. The only stitches used are knits, yarn overs, and increases (knit front and back). Use a color-changing yarn cake and the yarn does all the color work for you. That means you don’t have a lot of ends to weave in. This worsted weight shawl is nice and warm and great for cold days and evenings. Make it in bright colors and brighten up a cold day!
