HISHO 飛翔 (Japanese) - flying, flight, soaring

The texture of this crescent-shaped shawl is achieved by working a shifting slip stitch pattern which helps to achieve that dimensional look. The impressive high relief knit fabric is enhanced by combining it with 4 fun colors of the semi-solid hand-dyed yarns, giving this easy striped shawl a twist and opening up a world of color possibilities! With varieties of styling options and finished with an I-cord bind off this shawl will captivate the knitter as much as the wearer!

NOTES
Shawl is worked from the top down beginning with a garter tab.

Two chart views are provided: one large chart showing the scheme of the entire shawl (better for viewing on a screen) or four small charts (better for printing out). Both views are functionally equivalent despite looking different: you can knit from either and achieve the exact same result.
