This shawl is a top down crescent shaped shawl. The pattern does not have any complicated stitches, but all but a few of the RS rows have lace work. The WS rows do not have lace work.

This is designed to use two 500 yard cakes of Great Gradients by Yarn In The Box. The pattern does include instructions for pulling from the cake to maximize the beauty of this yarn.

The gradient yarn I used while designing this shawl can be purchased here.

The shawl has four individual lace designs. Between each lace design there are increase rows. The lace sections are fully charted. The increase rows are written instruction only and not charted.

Don’t like charts? This pattern is also fully written, so the shawl can be knit without using the charts.
