I’ve been so excited to publish this project! A simple shawl in worsted weight, great for easy TV knitting and good for a first foray into mosaic knitting.

You will need a total of 775 yards of worsted weight yarn split amongst four colors. For Color A, you will need 150 yards, for Color B, 250 yards, for Color C, 175 yards, and for Color D, 200 yards. For my project, I used Malabrigo Rios in Denim for Color A, Cape Cod Grey for Color B, Blue Jean for Color C, and Paris Night for Color D. If you want to achieve the same coloration effect as the model, choose three darkening shades of the same color for Colors A, C, and D, and a stark contract color for Color B.

Thank you so much to my wonderful test knitters!

Happy knitting to one and all!
