Colorful, knitted top down and ever increasing crescent shawl. Two distinct lace patterns knitted in a single color to offset the bright and colorful garter stitches done with a mix of colors and textures~

I created this shawl for Julie of JuJuknits and her mobile knit shop in Fort Worth, Texas.

Written pattern with charts for the two lace patterns.

The size, a comfortable 84” by 15”.

Yarn
C1: 1 Layers yarn cake, 200 yards in 10 portions of various weights and colors.
C2: 2 skeins of Organic cotton, 125 yards each in a DK weight.
Knit kits are available at Yarnz2go

Alternatively use your left over yarns instead of the Layers cake in 10 portions of 20 yards each in lace, fingering, sport, DK and worsted weight in various colors, plus 235 yards of DK weight yarn in a single color for the two lace portions.
