You require two colors of yarn. For example, black (the background), white (the flowers) and, if desired, some yarn for small leaves on the edges of the shawl, for example green. In this file I don’t give an explanation of Color Changing & Carrying the Yarn. But you can watch my video where I show how to add a third color for this shawl. Before starting to work, I advise you to carefully watch this video.
