Knit a mitered-square colorblock shawl in a unique way! Use sportweight to DK yarn in 2-3 colors—or scraps—for a satisfying quick knit that shows off the interesting construction.

(This is related to but actually predates Spring Feverish Project II!)

This .PDF includes a larger version of the schematic, so can use it to plan if you want to get more creative with colorblocks. It includes an extra tier repeat for planning purposes.

(I also show the construction step by step with mini-schematics, so if you’ve liked those in the past—this pattern has them too.)
