Knit Purl Slip is a celebration of easy, fun, engaging knitting, and beautiful yarn combinations. I used two of my lighter Kacey Knits Yarn variegated colorways with low contrast for my sample, creating a soft mermaid-y fabric with a ton of visual movement and secret rainbows. Do you want a more ethereal project? Go low-contrast. Do you want something bold? go high-contrast. This pattern was born from playing with color and texture, just noodling around with yarn and stitches. My favorite way to design!

This any-weight, symmetrical triangle shawl is written for DK and worked from corner to corner, with increases and decreases shaping this wide, shallow piece. Knit, purl, and slip stitches form the all-over texture and crisp, clean edges.

I used low-contrast variegated yarns for my sample. High-contrast solid, tonal, or variegated yarns will show the striping detail more. It’s also lovely to pair a tonal and a variegated, your MC is the background color and the CC is the striping color.

The sample is a smaller shawl, perfect for the change of seasons or zipping under a coat.
