Choose two contrasting colours for a fun adventure in mosaic knitting.
The geometric patterning is created with slip stitches, and you need only work with one colour each row – no stranding! Create yours with two solid colours or add to the knitting fun by using a gradient or colour change yarn for one of the colours. Simple increases form a triangular shawl, a classic shape that is so easy to wear. The pattern includes options for both fingering and DK/Worsted weight versions.

Both charts and written instructions are provided with this pattern.
