This crescent shaped shawl begins with a few stitches at the neck and grows with satisfying speed at the rate of six increases every other row. The body of the shawl contains colorful garter stripes with small bell-shaped picots. These are worked by increasing 1 stitch into 7 and then gradually decreasing back over 3 rows. A simple ripple edging worked in ombré finishes it off. Play around with the order of the colors to make it your own.
