Brick and Roll shawl is a fun and easy knit. It is perfect for knitting in front of the TV, long road trips, or drinking wine! The repeats are short, intuitive, and easy to memorize.

You will need only 2 skeins of fingering weight yarn. One is solid, another can be self-striping, ombre, gradients, mini skeins, or leftovers.

The pattern is written to use most of both colors, but you can adjust the size of the shawl, by working more or fewer repeats in each section. The pattern can be worked from the written instruction or the charts.
