Faded Brilliance is a perfect lightweight shawl with a memorable and easy pattern repeat. You can be creative and use cheerful and bright colors with your fade, or moody jewel tones - you just need 7 colors that fade well together.

You can use any fingering weight yarn that holds shape well. I used 75/25 Superwash Merino Wool Nylon 4 ply
Moonglow Yarn Co’s Lemonade Fade Set. You will need less than 50g of each color!
