Get the most out of your Unicorn Tails with this small and lightweight shawl, which uses five different colors to create an ombre effect. Or use contrasting colors, and watch as they shift into a textured gradient. Note: While precise gauge is often unimportant in accessories, this shawl was designed with a specific yarn quantity in mind. If your gauge is too loose, or if you leave very long tails to weave in, I can’t guarantee that you will be able to get all of the necessary rows from your tails. If you don’t want the stress of playing yarn “chicken”, I might suggest alternating one self-striping yarn with a solid color.

Measures 14.5” from center top to center tip; and has a 37” wingspan. Tie the ends behind your neck, and you’re ready to go!
