Fade into Spring Equinox Shawl

This shawl is knit using the luxurious fingering weight yarns by Dyer Wolf Yarn Co. When I saw her Equinox kit, I just knew it had to be a fade. The asymmetrical shawl features section of lace and garter and an I-cord edging. Transitions between colors occur in the relaxing garter sections.
