Inspired by the “grapes” created that reminded me of our honeymoon in the Wine country of California many years ago.

This oversized triangular shawl with many color changes starts with a Garter stitch tab cast on and increases throughout. The adorable little and big “grapes” are done in the shape of bobbles.

The size is a generous 85” in length and 25” in height.
Written pattern, includes 3 video links how to do the Garter tab cast on, the bobble stitch and the crochet bind off,

Yarn used here, 2 Layers yarn cakes with 200 yards each in 10 various textures, fibers and colors. Knit kits with free pattern is available at www.yarnz2go.com

Also this can be an awesome “use your stash” project, so raid your stash/leftovers.
Use 400 yards in portions of 20 yards each in differing weights from lace, fingering , sport, worsted and bulky weights. Use varying fibers too. In other words, anything goes…
