I love the beautiful tones of multicolored hand dyed yarn but don’t always know how to put them to best use. It occurred to me that I could use one multicolored yarn and one more tonal yarn in combination. This easy to knit crescent shaped shawl uses basic knit and purl stitches but also optional dropped yarn over stitches to create a lacy effect. The pattern helps to avoid pooling of colors and highlights the multicolored merino. The yarn creates a floaty fabric; “flyde” is Danish for “float.” My finished measurements are 8 feet x 2 1/2 feet.
