Mix a special gradient skein with stripes and lace for the ultimate bohemian shawl experience. Yemaya is a generous asymmetrical triangular wrap with multiple wearing possibilities. While Yemaya is designed to show of a gradient yarn, this shawl will work beautifully teaming a speckle, variegated or semi solid with your two contrasting skeins.

The Yemaya lace is both charted and written. The lace requires concentration and will suit an intermediate knitter with some lace experience.

Yemaya is a part of the Chroma Collection; a series of nine shawl patterns, all featuring gradient yarns.
