WELMOED SHAWL
This shawl is named after my sister in law, who chose three colors out of my stash. They were lovely, fingering weight yarns, and I created a crescent shaped shawl with them for her. I wanted to use most of the yarn, of all the three skeins, and I almost succeeded (just 50 grams left of the 300 grams I started out with).
I have used some garter rows, some stockinette rows, some eyelet rows, some mosaic pattern rows, and a picot bind off. Easy enough to use for TV knitting, interesting enough to keep your attention.
All techniques are explained in the pattern. The pattern has a row by row description.
