This shawl was available as a Craftsy Kit.

The supply I chose for this kit was Highland Worsted Yarn by Cloudborn, which isa perfect yarn for this project with a range of 31 colors to choose from! By choosing from 4 tones (light, mid, dark, and pop), you can easily create your own boho chic style!

  • This is a top-down knit triangle shaped shawl,with increases at both sides and the center of the shawl.
  • 4 stitches increased on every Right-side rows.
  • The slip-stitch knitting is also known as mosaic knitting. To use this type of colorwork, you will not floating the yarn in back of the work, and you don’t have to worry about the tension the floats are creating.
  • Only one color is worked over 2 rows, slipping the other color.
