Get ready to truly be EWE and express your unique personality using a funky color palette and playing around with those amazing speckles and hand dyed yarns!

This shawl starts with a strip of triangles that are built all in one piece and blend all your colors together. The shawl then goes into the chevron-tastic wonderland of the body – alternating between a single and double strand of yarn to give some intense squish factor. All of that gives you a beautifully drape-y shawl with an I-Cord edge running along the entire piece!


Size: Sample shown measures: 80 in/203 cm along the top edge; 22 in/56 cm along the center of the shawl. Shawl size may vary, depending on individual knitter’s gauge, yarns used, and blocking preferences.
