A garter stitch pattern frames this fun top-down triangular design. While working one color at a time, the slip stitch pattern magically creates a fun textured chevron design that mirrors itself throughout the shawl.

Featuring alternating sections of textural garter stitch and squishy fun mosaic stitch, this large shawl has color popping up in all the right places. Mosaic knitting looks like a lot of work, but only one color is worked at a time, and the pattern is created simply by slipping stitches. It knits up as fast as plain stockinette.

The yarn used can be easily substituted with any fingering weight yarn in colors with good contrast and that play well together.
Oh my, you should see how my testers did it beautifully!!!
